Parents are upset after a Catholic school in San Francisco handed out pamphlets asking elementary students about sexual acts and mercy killings.
Father Joseph Illo, who made news last month by banning girls from serving at the altar during Mass, distributed the pamphlets on the Examination of Conscience and Catholic Doctrine to students in grades two through six at Star of the Sea School.
The pamphlets asked students whether they had engaged in impure acts by themselves or with others, listing adultery, fornication, and sodomy.
Students were asked whether they had practice birth control or whether they or their spouse had been prematurely sterilized through tubal ligation or vasectomy.

Catholic priest and kids and sex. Has all the required ingredients of pedophilia except for an act of sex, though it could also be an example of the priest effecting sexual shaming (defining sex as "impure acts" .
