“Answer, yes! Married men were ordained, even to the episcopate, in the ancient Church. Of course, they ceased living as married men upon reception of the diaconate (let alone priesthood and episcopate) but, cessation of conjugal living does not dissolve or annul one’s marriage, so, yes, a married man could be elected pope. That said, I think the odds are against that happening. :)”
OK, I’ll throw my at into the ring.
Full Disclosure: There will be more change. Holy water is out. It spreads germs and isn’t Biblical. Ditto, the costumes. I’m willing to wear a nice Italian suit - no tie. I won’t be living in Rome. Filthy city. Bad tax system in Italy too. Pope-mobile is out. I want something more rugged. Leading a church isn’t a reason to look goofy. God commands us to have sex within marriage. Expect me to fulfill that command. Regularly. Faithfully. With great joy. Easiest command to keep. This is just the beginning.
Leave your resume in the “in” box on the receptionist’s desk, please. No need to call; we’ll be in touch.
