Unmarried priests is idiotic, and a blaspheme against the God...
Pardon? Says *you*? The implications of what you've said here are a bit much to overlook, jeremiah; I'm sorry to be harsh, but: if you are not Catholic, you can butt right out of the discussion about the vows of our priests and religious.
The Lord has called my brothers and sisters in Faith... in response to that call, they've given a tremendous, beautiful gift of self to Him. Scoffing at such a measure of unselfishness is disgraceful, and incredibly uncharitable.

I suppose it seems a bit far for one who is not catholic, but do you criticize the practices of homosexuals? That activity is condemned in the Bible, as is those that make chaste vows, to make themselves holy. The practices of the church are traditions, and as such are not the command of God. Therefore, they are open to interpretation and questioning.
