Father Jose Mariani
• Religious Meddlers, Do-gooders
Much to his regret Father Jose Mariani was only successful sexually with woman as he recounts in No Beating About The Bush, The Life of a Priest:
"I could hear my heart beat in ecstasy before the beauty of the body offered before me. I smothered the body with the sweat of my skin," wrote Fr Mariani, describing his first sexual experience as a young priest. Later in the book he recounts trying to have sex with "Antonio" but "our mutual inhibitions conquered our momentary permissiveness and openness".

People like me are sick and do not realize this. We hurt people many times. When looking for love we face rejection. After we find love we are to sick to stop hurting others.
