Der Zölibat verpflichtet katholische Priester zur Ehelosigkeit. Trotz sexuellem Missbrauch durch Priester wird er bis heute als ein Grundpfeiler der Kirche verteidigt. Hubert Wolf zeigt dagegen, dass der Zölibat gar nicht so alt ist und es heute bereits verheiratete Priester gibt. Er hinterfragt die diversen Begründungen und findet gute Gründe dafür, den Zölibat endlich abzuschaffen. Sein kirchenhistorisch profunder, glasklar argumentierender Weckruf sollte auch im Vatikan gehört werden. Die Ehelosigkeit der Priester wurde mit ihrer kultischen Reinheit begründet.

In A War of Loves, he shares his growing desire as a gay rights activist to see justice for LGBTQI people, his journey through new age religions and French existentialism, and his university years as a postmodernist - before Jesus Christ showed up in his life in a highly unexpected way, leading him down a path he never would have imagined or predicted.

Some have been accused of murder, many have had mistresses, while others sold positions in the church to their followers or gave land and wealth to their illegitimate children. E. R.
