The New York Times is reporting that Pope Benedict, the 16th is planning to sign a document banning gay men from being priests, even those who are celibate. The ruling will be issued to Catholic seminaries. The paper reports that while the pope has not yet signed the document, it would probably be released in the next six weeks. In addition to the new document, which will apply to the church worldwide, Vatican investigators have been instructed to visit each of the 229 seminaries in the US.
