“The accepted wisdom is that celibate males have no business telling married couples how to live their lives: ‘What do they know about the subject?’”
People who say this have obviously never been in a confessional. Priests know just about everything there is no know about the subject. After hearing thousands of people confess their sins, it would be pretty damn amazing if they did not.
Priests do for nothing what shrinks get paid a $100 dollars an hour for.
