Where's the so-called principles of the Catholic Church? This is an outrage. Either let priests be married or don't, but don't play games here with Gods' word.

Well, outrage is a bit harsh. But it makes little sense that married Protestants can convert and be ordained to the Catholic priesthood, but married Catholics cannot.

Sure they can, in the Eastern Catholic Churches. Why do you insist on misleading these posters with your own prejudices?
