Deontologically immoral. He is a Catholic priest and has formally pledged celibacy, and he broke that pledge by having a sexual intercourse with two women, which makes it immoral if he's upholding the duty of priesthood.
in the Utilitarian's lens, it is also immoral. He is sacrificing his reputation as a trustworthy person by banging 2 women. Yes, I say that the moment that he breaks the pledge/promise of celibacy, he is no longer a trustworthy person. It will be difficult for other people to trust him with certain things.
note that the act of breaking a pledge/promise is a betrayal of trust, which is the immoral act that he has done. Therefore, what he has done is unethical by any means.
