A confused guest at a church decides to ask a priest about what seems to be a set of double standards set for a priest and the members of the church.

|
|
 | |  |
| People would be less likely to strive to live like Jesus if they knew a priest couldn't. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| So your saying that everything you do wrong should be hidden because your a priest? | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| Well, yes. A priest is supposed to be holy, set apart from world. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| So you don't commit any sins? I thought christians were meant to strive for perfection. No human being can actually be perfect! | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| If people see a priest is imperfect they will begin to think that their religion is a lie and they won't want to follow it. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| But hiding faults of character and pretending to be perfect is a lie. . | |
