For the past two months, in various press circles, people have been "breaking the story" about a document that may or may not be released this Tuesday, one week from today. I've been hearing that it's going to come out "in the near future" for the last two months. I'm still waiting...
At first, it was reported that the document was going to ban all homosexuals from priesthood. Fear, dread, anger, discrimination, and all kinds of other feelings came out. Then, nothing happened. No document. Suddenly, a couple weeks later, the media changed its mind. The document was going to ban PRACTICING homosexuals and people involved in the homosexual agenda. A man needs to be celibate for three years before he is admitted to seminary and shouldn't advocate policies that are contrary to catholic teaching. (i.e. gay marriage, open homosexual lifestyle, etc.)
In the next few days, the people that hate the church are going to offer their opinions. Expect to especially hear from gay rights advocates (or, as I call them, "anti-family advocates"), pro-married clergy (or "anti-celibacy") advocates, and pro-women's ordination advocates to have a particular conniption fit in the next week. But, all along, remember that NO ONE KNOWS WHAT THIS DOCUMENT SAYS!!!! There was a rumor that it connected the sexual abuse crisis to homosexuality but no one knows that for sure. What they hate is celibacy. When you hear a commentator the media puts up to debate this issue yet again, they will bring up celibacy. Be forwarned because they will probably get priests to do the speaking.
Remember something as they are speaking: a real practicing celibate, which is the majority of priests, sisters, and brothers, are not sexual abusers, are happier and live longer than other people, and are called to live that life by God. Then, shut off the TV, Radio, or computer and go do something productive.

I'd like to know what the definition of "GAY AGENDA" is and "ACTIVE HOMOSEXUAL" is. I hear this term a LOT but can't seem to find a definite definition anywhere.
On the off chance that this is student I got to know at Iowa State named Zach or, of course, Zach Galifianakis, I'll provide an answer.
Gay agenda: Driven mostly by liberal media sources and Hollywood, the gay agenda seeks to equate same sex attraction with heterosexuality. The gay agenda relies on the notion, largely begun in the 1960s, that sex and sexuality should primarily be for self gratification/pleasure and not for fecundity.
An "Active Homosexual" is someone who is engaging in same-sex sexual activity.
