I wish you people could figure this out: celibacy is the normal
discipline of the Latin Rite, it is not a matter of
doctrine -- and dispensation from celibacy is granted to married Lutheran and Episcopalian ministers who become Catholic priests. Married men can be ordained to the Eastern rites of the Catholic Church.
The Catholic Church does not require celibacy of anyone; you can choose to be married and serve Christ in a hundred different ways apart from those that require the discipline of celibacy. The discipline of being a monk, nun, or a regular Latin rite priest means you choose to be a eunuch for Christ's sake. There are hundreds of ways to serve God in the Catholic Church. Our disciplines are not unbiblical doctrines of demons.
If anyone else has pointed out the fact that celibacy is indeed a choice I haven't seen it.Kudos for you! I don't understand why people have a problem with this.
Hey..if your happy then I'm happy.
