The priest standards of training in thought, theology and Bible are very low, as has been demonstrated on FR and by a review of catholic seminary curriculum required courses.

[Mrs. Don-o]

Every priest I know reads several Biblical languages, and every priest I know has had further academic /University training in addition to seminary. These days seminary is, you could say, the minimum requirement.

Not that this is all "of the essence." I doubt the first Pope, Peter the Fisherman, was a University of Galilee grad.

I'm glad to be able to explain that to you.

[Hieronymus]

That depends on the Seminary. They vary greatly.
