“Read Paul’s instruction to Timothy on who should be in church leadership. That’s more than a couple of decades ago.”

If you have a point to make, make it. I’m not going to run off and do your bidding for you.

1 Timothy 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; 3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; 4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; 5 For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?

Catholic priests don't qualify. And that was written more than a couple of decades ago.
