The late Bishop Fulton Sheen once observed that, if the Roman Catholic Church were actually what its enemies claim, Fulton Sheen would have left the Church. Happily, the critics were wrong. Celibacy was imposed in the Roman Rite by Pope Gregory VII. The purpose had to do with the wealthy hiring the children of priests in order that the wealthy might control the substance of sermons.

We can well do without married priests.

We can certainly do without laywomen or laymen running parishes.

I can definitely think of some deacons that I would not ever want to be running parishes.

We'll get by because we will be importing actually Catholic Third World priests as necessary until the very promising seminarians of today are ready to lead the AmChurch back to Catholicism. Catholicism and materialism are separate categories. Doctrine and discipline are what count in Catholicism.

Now this much, I agree with. If you can purge the sodomites and replace them with third-world priests, more power to you. The Anglican situation is very instructive here; the sodomites are solely a Western phenomenon (ugh!).
