as it is rude to diss the Pope, as in your rejection of Catholic dicipline on the matter of a married Latin Rite Priesthood.

I've never dissed the Pope on celibacy; I disagree with the discipline.

Mandatory celibacy is not a matter of doctrine, so Catholics are free to disagree with it. In fact, mandatory celibacy is now required only for Catholic men who become priests; Protestant converts are not required to practice celibacy.

But, things are moving in my direction, what with the Anglican dispensation and the married diaconate.

Are you not a permanent ordained Deacon in the Latin Rite?

If that is so, how can you so cavalierly reject Catholic discipline? Were you not required to assert fidelity to both Catholic teaching and Catholic discipline?
