Conservative Catholic Book (2 of 5): Seminary memories.



From Michael S. Rose’s “Goodbye! Good Men: How Catholic Seminaries Turned Away Two Generations of Vocations from the Priesthood” (2002) (p. 93):

Father John Trigilio of the Harrisburg, Pennsylvania diocese remembers visiting St. Mary’s in Baltimore when he was a seminarian in Pennsylvania.  “There was no discretion at all,” he said of the gay subculture there.  “The few times I was there, some of the seminarians would literally dress like gays from the Village.  They would even go so far as to wear pink silk; it was like going to see ‘La Cage Aux Folles’.”
