Actually don’t mind this as much as all the other dumb ideas they’re floating back at Rome. Priestly celibacy wasn’t even a requirement in the earliest Church. And it might help with the recruitment. Course its only a bandage on larger problems.
Being a priest isn't a career choice, it's a calling from God. You're either called, or you're not.
If someone needs to be married in order to answer the call from God to be a priest, he's got a problem -- his heart isn't really in it. He should be answering the call without it, otherwise, he's going to suck as a priest..
Braz de. Aviz is a particularly disgusting Francis appointment. Read the rest of the things he said.
Unbelievably, he was put in charge of consecrated life, meaning religious orders, and has announced that they are outdated, that even the vows are outdated, and that the orders will be changed to “reflect the Pope’s priorities” and get into “ecology.” Which means no Jesus Christ and a lot of Karl Marx combined with Teilhard de Chardin.
