And it might help with the recruitment.

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..

Wonder how Eastern rite married priests integrate courtship, marriage and seminary.
