Priests/bishops are professional prayers—their lives are given to it, which is EXACTLY why they don’t have families and children.

Again, God's command through the apostle Paul was that bishops be husbands and fathers. And as you remind us, Catholicism commands the exact opposite.

Thanks for making it crystal clear exactly where the Catholic Church stands viz. God's commands.

So I take it you don't allow single men to be called, nor infertile men to be called, and a "bishop" of yours who loses his wife next loses his job. Right?

Oh, and Jesus would not have been qualified to be a bishop in his own church. Right?

That is, if you really mean what you say you mean.

Hint: there's a big difference between a concession and a command.
