Same partial paragraph in 3 Wikipedia entries

As a result of a Google search, I discovered the same five-sentence text in three different entries: Fornication, Christian tradition and Infallibility of the Church. I don't have expertise in this subject area so perhaps someone who does could have a look and decide if it should be deleted from this entry. This is the text:

In his book, James F. Keenan reports studies by some academics. A study by Bernard Hoose states that claims to a continuous teaching by the Church on matters of sexuality, life and death and crime and punishment are "simply not true". After examining seven medieval text about homosexuality, Mark Jordan argues that, "far from being consistent, any attempt to make a connection among the texts proved impossible". He calls the tradition's teaching of the Church "incoherent". Karl-Wilhelm Merks considers that tradition itself is "not the truth guarantor of any particular teaching."
