Various associations have been argued between [[homosexuality]] and the [[Catholic Church]] (or the [[Vatican II Church]] if disputing the legitimacy of the mainstream church after the [[Vatican II Council]]).

The Catholic Church has recently been associated with various [[pedophile]] scandals involving priests. Responses have included that there is no relationship between celibacy and pedophilia, but that there is an argued one between homosexuality and pedophilia. Thus, in effect, the presence of homosexual priests in the Catholic Church has been argued to be the cause of the abuses. Furthermore, many of the abuses are argued to involve adolescent males rather than children.

A 2019 book by a homosexual author claimed that 80% of Vatican priests were homosexual, although not necessarily sexually active.
