Still trying to wrap my head around this one. I'm not understanding why a cigarette is worth being inappropriately touched...

I have decided not to do it anymore. I will get a cigarette from someone else if I really need one.

Ummm, no. He is a holy priest. He would not dare do anything of the sort. I admit that I sinned and I did confess it in Confession last night.
