I have Scripture passages to support the priesthood but that is going off topic. That's interesting. I think you don't have Scripture that defines and declares a Christian Priesthood other than what I've mentioned exists.

You are still off topic. The subject is celibacy in the priesthood. Am I getting through at all on this little matter? I responded to a request you made about Biblical support for celibacy, which WAS on topic. You have never addressed it. That is very telling about your feelings about your position of strength. I am starting to wonder if the reason you are so desperate to change the subject of the thread might be because you can not address the verse and you don't want anyone to notice.
Alas I have noticed. You asked the question on celibacy first. I responded and you have been running away from it ever since. I thank you for giving me the opportunity of pointing this out again.
If you continue to stray off topic and fail to respond to the answer to your question I will be forced to point it out again for all our readers.
Care to try again? Just in case you missed it the passage was Matthew 19:12
For there are eunuchs, who were born so from their mother's womb: and there are eunuchs, who were made so by men: and there are eunuchs, who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven. He that can take, let him take it.
Care to guess who said it?
