Is it time to ordain married men to the Catholic priesthood?

This nice Catholic boy votes "Yes"

I think that that the church's position on celibate priests denies the positive gift of human uality. There has been such an aura of wickedness around .

I'm not totally sold on ordaining married men, but it would certainly take away the stigma that men who engage in with their wives are somehow less holy or worthy than the celibate.
