Feh. I did that holding a series of crappy jobs to support a wife and two young children. Everything worked out okay.
A midwestern German Catholic priest marrying a youngish midwestern Irish woman can be good for twelve children. Even if the money is there, the children deserve more attention than a man with a priestly calling can give. Regarding marriage in general, I sometimes like to point out that "No man can serve two masters."

People used to father 10-12 children all the time back in the day. Putting in 12 hour days in mills, factories and coal mines. My grandparents both came from such families. Again, things for them worked out okay.

Even Christ a bride. The Church.

“No man can serve two masters.”
True.
And if a woman is allowed in the priest’s house it will be no time at all until you see women behind the pulpit, women handling the Host, a feminized pope...Oh, wait.
