We follow Biblical principles on this issue. Most of the church staff is married and have kids.

Most of the clergy in my Catholic parish are married and have kids, too. We've got four married, ordained deacons in Holy Orders, and two celibate priests.

The principle of the possibility of married priests is not contested, as it already exists as an actuality in the Church. Even in our tiny Diocese of Knoxville, we've got a couple of married priests, ex-Anglicans. That is not the problem here.

The bigger issue is whether these Sankt Gallen apostates behind the scenes, can exploit the indigenous people by turning them into ventriloquists' dummies, write an Instrumentum Laboris to sideline the Gospel as culturally insensitive, replace it with animism-pantheism, and get away with it.

These are racist shape-shifters, the equivalent of fake blackface minstrels, who are using the Amazon faithful as an excuse for founding a new religion, coated in a thin layer of spray-on Christ.

Believe me, this ain't Catholic.
