If a person admits that he is bi-sexual or homosexual, will he be rejected when he applies to a seminary or religious order?

0

The issue for seminaries and religious orders is self-acceptance of one’s sexual orientation, and the ability to relate to others in healthy ways. Seminaries and religious orders look for men who will be able to live a celibate life-style as a gift from God. The gift of celibacy allows a priest to dedicate himself to people in ways that are different from an exclusive relationship in marriage.
