"Considering how many rites with optional celibacy are still in communion with Rome, however, why shouldn't men with vocations both to the priesthood and to marriage simply change rites?"

The Vatican's already wise to that one - it takes at least 7 years for a clergyman to transfer rites within the Church!

I was thinking more about transferring before seminary. Or are they on to that, too? : )
