It’s always bothered me that most priests have never actually earned their own money.
You mean like community organizers?
“Priests have never actually earned their own money”
What does that mean? One doesn’t go into the priesthood for money, but don’t they earn their small salary in going to the hospital at 3 in the morning for a sick call, or in counseling parishioners, or in decisions about parish finances, etc, etc, etc?
You DO know they do a job, right?? Believe me, they EARN their pay.
