The church is allowing Homosexuals and pagans into the priesthood.
But it's not supposed to.
We would have to be blind not to see the damage that it is doing to the church.
Priest's are supposed to follow Jesus, the examples of the disciples and the advice of Paul.
Tell me that is not dogma.
This means a vow of poverty, which means they can own very little property.
It also means a vow of chastity.
Which means they should not marry.
To be a priest your concerns must be that of God’s and not of this world.
That is why Jesus and his disciples were not married and did not posses wealth.
This is as the disciples and Jesus did and why it is dogma.
The real truth is that the church has to keep the church clean of such individuals and drive them out.
To quote my savior: "Take these things out of here!"
Rather than do what is right, we suggest changing the ways of Christ and his disciples.
What is right is for the church to remove non-repentant sinners from the priesthood.
But in today’s society which cannot seem to tell a lie from the truth, we wish to blame
the problems of the church (homosexuals and pagans) on the church doctrines and
not on the failure of the church to follow doctrine.

And by the way a Priest Has a Family, his congregation.

Jesus Cleanses the Temple
13 The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 In the temple
he found people selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and the money changers
seated at their tables. 15 Making a whip of cords, he drove all of them out of the temple,
both the sheep and the cattle. He also poured out the coins of the money changers and
overturned their tables. 16 He told those who were selling the doves, "Take these things
out of here! Stop making my Father’s house a marketplace!" 17His disciples remembered
that it was written, "Zeal for your house will consume me."

YOu have a lot to learn. For starters, not all priests take a vow of poverty. I think most diocesan priests take a vow of chastity and obedience, but not one of poverty. They may inherit great wealth and keep it, write books, etc. This situation isn't new.

Priests who live in community takes vows of poverty. I'm not sure all do, however.

You must differentiate between dogma, which is forever, and practice, which may change.
