Pope accepts resignation of Polish bishop after gay orgy scandal in diocese

This is the best summary I could come up with:

But his diocese has been in the spotlight after one of his priests was placed under criminal investigation for having allegedly organised an orgy at his apartment in Dąbrowa Górnicza involving a male sex worker.

In 2010, the then acting rector of the Sosnowiec seminary allegedly got into a scuffle at a gay club, but was allowed to remain in his job for more than a year even after the case was publicised by Polish media.

The diocese, which identified the priest involved in the purported orgy as Tomasz Z, has largely corroborated the media reports, saying an outside investigative commission had concluded he committed “a very serious violation of moral norms”, as well as of his obligations as a clergyman.

Kaszak dismissed the priest from all functions on 21 September and initiated an in-house canonical trial, the outcome of which could result in defrocking, or laicisation, according to a statement on the diocesan website.

Polish media quoted a statement he issued soon after the scandal erupted, denying he had prevented paramedics from accessing his apartment and questioning the definition of “orgy”.

“I perceive this as an obvious attack on the church, including the clergy and the faithful, in order to humiliate its position, tasks and mission,” the priest was quoted as saying in a statement he emailed to the Gazeta Wyborcza daily.

As long as there is no kids involved and they are consenting adults then who gives a shit.
- The Vatican
  
  Yeah, anything over 12 years old is just shameful according to them
- Read the article, there’s more to it than just consensual sex between adults.
It is okay to be gay and have orgies, you do you. However, the hypocrisy is the real issue.
They did what? with consenting adults? we have to stop THAT!
The pope, probably
