That's no reason to avoid a celibate priesthood.
Rather, it is a reason to reject men who lack the qualities necessary to become a good fathers. The qualities required for natural fatherhood and supernatural fatherhood are the same. Gays lack those qualities... and some heterosexual men do too... and that renders them unfit for priesthood.
I totally agree. I back a celibate clergy.
How do you get rid of the gays? And, the priesthood has dwindled to a trickle. It will get much, much smaller.
My question has two parts:
The first is what sort of methods the church uses to screen out unfit men.
The second is why not have the option of allowing married men to the priesthood as long as they have no minor children.
