Or, you know, the regular non-Catholic pastors who
don't have vows of celibacy.
I would imagine that "PRIESTS WHO DON'T PRACTICE CELIBACY" covers all of them. Nobody used the word Catholic, except you that is.
Padre, Priest, Minister, Pastor, Sexton, Monk, Preacher, whatever. The generic term does cover most members of "the cloth" unless you are Church of England, or some such and must be very specific when addressing or referring to your Preacher.

Well, it's certainly a group distinct from the Mormon church bankrolling Prop 8. Buuut they consider themselves Mormons, and it wasn't so long ago that the main Mormon church itself switched to what they're now calling "traditional" marriage.

Oh, I dunno. I think 120 or so years may not count as "not so long ago"
Mormon fundamentalists -- who seem to be the only Mormons-in-name keeping the tradition, are vigorously decried by the mainstream LDS church, and they do try to put loads of distance between themselves and the craziers.
But yes, it still goes on, and just because Mainstream Mormons don't accept the practice (and consider fundamentalist Mormons to be nutbags and not really Mormons if they can't do something as simple as follow the goddamned rules of the church) doesn't change anything.
Mainstream whitey thinks that black people shouldn't be called niggers and spooks and mud people... but guess what still happens?
The mainstream LDS (among others) were pouring money into Prop 8, though. I don't remember the stats, but an utterly unacceptable amount of campaign financing for a California legislative / public opinion issue came from nowhere near California and came in envelopes licked by Jesus Himself.
These people are all gonna hurry up and die before I have to explain to my future children exactly how it is that we continue to tolerate this shit, aren't they? Because I don't have an answer for my future children. All I've got is a grim shrug and a vague plan to break into as many bible-publishing places I can find and go all Name of the Rose on things.
I think that's probably the best way.

For fuck's sake RBJ, could you get your polygamous denominations sorted out?

This may be the most dirtily blasphemous partial sentence I've ever read.

Jesus is everywhere, so whenever anything is licked, Jesus licked it!
