"Former N.J. governor Jim McGreevey denied bid for priesthood"

Being gay and being a jerk to your wife are two very very different things. I understand, especially older individuals, that one may come to terms with their orientation later in life after been married with children. We can assume individuals in this position, always take in consideration of their former spouse and children with immense respect and compassion.

As this article puts it well, because there may a legitimate reason to no longer be with your spouse, that doesn't give you an excuse to be a complete jerk about it. There may be no fault in being gay, but it's not your ex-wife's or child's fault either so don't take it out on them!

Former N.J. governor Jim McGreevey denied bid for priesthood

Another source said that McGreevey was rejected not for being gay, but for being a “jackass” in his divorce proceedings, which damaged his reputation. They feared that McGreevey was possibly using the clergy as a tool to rebuild his tarnished image rather than focus on God. Both McGreevey and Newark Diocese’s Bishop Mark Beck declined to comment.
