“It’s the strangest thing about [the Catholic Church]: It is absolutely obsessed with sex. Absolutely obsessed.Now they will say ‘[you] with [y]our permissive society and [y]our rude jokes are obsessed.’ No, we have a healthy attitude—we like it, it’s fun, it’s jolly—[and] because it’s a primary impulse it can be dangerous and dark and difficult. It’s a bit like food in that respect, only even more exciting. The only people who are obsessed with food are anorexics and the morbidly obese. And that, in erotic terms, is the Catholic Church in a nutshell.”
