It looks like you're saying catholic priests are nearly universally homosexuals.
You might, however, be saying the use of this subject in fiction writing is common place.

I plead guilty to "poorly worded".

The real issue is not the sexual orientation of Catholic priests but their commitment to chastity. It is that fall from grace that serves as plot lines in a host of books and is not limited to catholic priests.

This was my assumption of your intent, but thank you for clearing it up. I agree with you on this, except that I also think KB made himself the focus. I don't blame him, he was trying to promote an offense that would likely make him a good amount of money; but he wasn't honest about that part.

FWIW, I also agree with your assessment of the economic turmoil.
