I fail to see how a person who is gay (attracted to the same sex) is being sinful. You can consider gay sex sinful all you want, but in this case the priest is abstinint and therefore not sinning.
And there are many things in the bible (old and new) that were once considered taboo or sinful, yet the religion evolved enough to fogive these sins, yet not others.
If he is abstaining from homosexual acts, then he is not sinning. It is not a sin to be tempted by gay sex.
If he is promoting gay marriage from the pulpit, that is a sin.
