I'm not sure your argument even makes sense. You present a married man as if he is the embodiment of normalcy and would therefore make a perfect member of the clergy.

And yet many folks have pointed out on this thread (and others) that the Catholic Church not only refuses to ordain married men, but it also stands out as the last remaining mainline Christian denomination that doesn't ordain lesbians and other assorted LGBT freaks.

Nonsense.

There are many non-Catholic denominations which won't ordain ministers and will defrock them for any moral failure.

But you did a somewhat dishonest portrayal there. You specified MAINLINE denominations, as if that were representative of ALL non-Catholic denominations. And they certainly aren't.

You need to specify what YOU mean by MAINLINE, and then not broad brush all non-Catholic denominations with that brush.

You might want to review that statement for accuracy.

The Lutheran Church Missouri synod does not ordain women or the sexually perverted crowd. They also do not systemically cover up child sexual abuse

Normal men do not seek celibacy. Not complicated.

But the RC church cannot understand that raping children should be punished by prison. So it is not surprising that basic logic escapes RC apologists.
