                    [Title] => Church to check priests’ lifestyles
                    [Summary] => How are their morals holding up?


Amid allegations of impropriety, the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) is set to conduct its own lifestyle check on priests.

However, the lifestyle check will focus on the clerics’ moral lifestyles rather than the more material matter of finances.

CBCP secretary general Hernando Coronel said yesterday that the "moral lifestyle check" is the inevitable offshoot of the protocol on sexual behavior they are set to complete by September.

"All implications point to the father," Chief Inspector Roger Yalung, CPD-CIU legal officer, said.
