Here is an interesting survey on the Catholic Church position on several hot topic issues like contraception, abortion, women ordination, gay marriage and sexual abuse by the priesthood. It turns out there is a very sharp divide between the priests and the nuns of the Catholic Church. In fact both group are basically strongly supporting completely opposite positions on every single one of those issues with the priesthood being a lot more conservative. My only question though is about monks which don't seem to have been mentioned in the article.
