The priests who hired me for sex...

(...)

Why am I not shocked? During the 1990s, when I worked as an escort in Denver, Colorado, I estimate at least 15 percent of my clientele were clergy or connected with the church in some way. There were one-timers and there were guys who came back again and again and again, and they were all the same: positively giddy when the encounter began, unable to look you in the eye as they left. The excitement that initially animated them was wholly overshadowed by the despondency and guilt that would overcome them as soon as it was over.

I can’t imagine the guilt they were feeling. Not only were they having sex with another man—a sin punishable by God, in their minds—but I believe many of them were doing exactly what Father Gray did: stealing from their own churches. Maybe not a million bucks, maybe not even so much that anyone would notice. But more than once I was paid for my services with a handful of crinkled ones and fives. I would think to myself, how could they take from their own church’s collection plate? The answer is simple and sad: addicts will do whatever they need to do to support their habit. Full story...

Don't miss:

  1. Catholic priest stole $1.3 million in church money to pay for male escorts...
  2. Catholic playboy priest jailed for £2m church fraud!!!
  3. Pedophiles and popes: doing the Vatican shuffle...
  4. Belgian prelate perverts and their catechism kiddie porn...
  5. Catholic priest in Australia jailed for 14 years for abusing 39 boys...
