Could be wrong, but maybe what's being inferred is that if you are gay you are going against the
"natural order of nature" and therefore would have a tendency to do (what some would consider) other deviant things more easily.
Don't mean to put words into anyone's mouth but this is what I am guessing. Wouldn't think that that is true, but really do not know a lot about it.

Twenty One years ago I was engaged to a woman in Episopal Seminary studying to be an Episcopal Priest. Church Politics is amazing. Back Stabbing in the name of God.

You mean the church poisoned her mind against you?

I think he just means the challenge of dealing with the internal office-politics and ideological-warfare of a seminary or a church or religious organization.

A friend of mine once told me the best place to pick up chicks is at a catholic high school on graduation day.

Oh, I thought they may have directly done that so that he wouldn't be married maybe.

No, I realized I couldn't be married to a Priest.

Oh, I see. Was thinking it was something the seminary did toward you. Guess me being old am not used to even think of
women being Priests. Sorry. Didn't mean to pry.
I probably could not have handled that either. Dated a girl a few years ago. She went to church a couple of times a week. When we broke up literally she was going to church eight times a week at least.
