LOL. Yeah, even the innocent ones get the "comfort" of living alone in a old rectory, being on call 24x7 ("you're sick ... that's too bad, Father ... please come right away ... I realize it's 3am"), and having to deal with every sort of trouble sinful men and women can dig themselves into.
Not to mention having to say funeral masses for children.
And for that, they get paid well under $20,000 year, out of which they have to pay for -- among other things -- their own car, which they use for work.
And out of the pittance that's left, they can pay for "whatever comforts they desire".
Here's the comfort and ease to which "another Christ" is entitled, according to Scripture. (Executive summary: same as the first one).
Looks like fun, doesn't it? Just a barrel of laughs.
I've known too many holy priests who poured out their lives for their people until there was nothing left, to put up with any more of your vicious, unChristian slander of the Catholic priesthood as a whole.
My former pastor ministered to us until he was 84, and toward the end, he was so frail it was a bit scary to shake his hand ... you thought something might break. He's one of the holiest men I've ever met.
Part of the "comfort and ease" with which he was rewarded to have the crazies from Westboro Baptist outside his church one Sunday with a big sign that read
FAG PRIEST
I'm curious. Were you there with them?
