I see the command to ordain pastors and elders in every city, with ONE wife a piece as a primary qualification, but ZERO priests. Except for the "thou has made us unto God a kingdom of priests" spoken by all the saints of the New Testament era in the Book of Revelation, I see no reference to the office or station of priest.
Don't worry though, you will soon be branded an heretic by someone who "knows" their Church is the only one who is "right" and that all "questioners" concerning such matters originate from the damned, the heretics and the offal of Satan's seed.
Regardless, in my copy of the New Testament, most men who serve God are required to be married for all but the eunichs of Christ. Still, "eunichs for christ" were not listed as one of the five-fold ministries orginally listed as being "for the perfecting of the saints." per se.
It's not that singleness is sin, it's just that the unmarried are ill equipped to fully understand experientially the rigors of FAMILY and SEXUAL life within a marriage. They can spout platitudes regarding behaviors in marriage, but have very little "internalized" connections to comprehend that advice, emotionally, spiritually or familial wise.
I think "priests" should be married. Makes for better equipped servants of God, if they be so.
And so oncologists who have never had cancer are "ill equipped to fully understand experientially the rigors of" suffering cancer and can "spout platitudes regarding behaviors in" cell growth, "but have very little 'internalized' connections to comprehend that advice, emotionally, spiritually or familial wise."
