"Doesn't matter. It is time fot the Catholic Church to allow married (heterosexual) priests."

It doea matter, because you know as well as I do that married heterosexual priests are not the real agenda here.

Years ago, both before and after I bowed out of organized religion (Catholic) in utter disgust I strongly believed that the RCC should take a page from the OCC and allow married priests. However, it became apparent 5 years ago that the idea had been hijacked by the gay lobby, and it has become nothing more than another morally equivilant, PC agenda being forced down the throats of a well meaning populace. By all means, go for married heterosexual priests in the RCC. However, be ready for a replay of the gay demand for extra privilege just the same as in the Episcopalian church, because gay married Roman Catholic priests are what THIS is all about.

My father's great friend, Ft. Joe Regan, told me circa 1970 when Berrigan et al were all marrying nuns, that it was funny how as soon as someone rocked the boat, these guys all jumped ship. His comment on that kind of priest was " How deeply did they really believe for the 25 years all those creeps had been priests." The lesson is not marrying, but the loss of faith and the concept of sin.
