I assume that you are saying that the pope wants to change the Church discipline concerning unmarried priests? No such thing! Please post the popes writings where he says what you claim.

Putting aside, for a moment, the rites which have historically allowed married priests (for example, the Marionites), you are aware, aren’t you, that there are several hundred married Latin rite priests in this country, with an expected influx of many more into the larger church under the Anglican use provisions (Anglicanorum Coetibus)established several months ago. So if you think all Catholic priests should be unmarried, you appear to have a disagreement with the Bishop of Rome.
