That response to me was completely insincere. Go back and read my post to you.

I was responding to this question of yours.

“So are you suggesting that the Catholic Church force all priests to be married?” It never even entered my mind. I don’t see how you could have gotten it out of my comment.

It should be the choice of the man.

A wife can be a tremendous encouragement to a man in the ministry.

While being married can have it’s issues, being alone is not all it’s cracked up to be either. A single person has to take care of all the day to day mundane things in addition to working, that a spouse can help with.

There’s pros and cons to both positions and the individual himself is the best person to determine which would work out best for him.
