I think the Catholic Church * change this, quite possibly in my lifetime.
There are already married priests in the Catholic church. This is just not common practice for various historical and practical reasons, but many argue that the disadvantages of celibacy is superior to the benefits.
Women in senior positions "is very different. Hay, theological reasons why women are not sorted, but only the most serious emergencies that affect this growing practice. I heard that in rare cases of extreme persecution that has been done when the only means of maintaining an ordained priesthood, but I do not have specific data about it.

As mentioned above, there are married priests in the Church. Priestly celibacy is a discipline not a doctrine, and as such can be changed if the Church is able to do so.
I feel that is much less of an issue seem to think that people (particularly when they make the wrong connection between celibacy sexual and abuse, there are plenty of pedophiles married outside the faith community, so marriage does not "cure" , pedophilia.)
Should the Catholic Church decided to change the subject, I have no problem accepting it. The women in senior positions "is completely independent of this, and much less likely to occur - that is, allowing women to be priests. There is simply no good reason to do this only by modern secular culture has their own definition of "equality" is a synonym for gender neutrality.

I would be happy with the idea, although I understand the Catholic Church comes from its current policy on marriage. Set yourself apart from completely God's work is a great thing.
I would be more honest if it was a personal decision, not a rule of the Church.

I would have no problem with him, I feel a bit superficial that they can not marry. I feel that if there is a God who has bigger problems than if one priest has the right to marry. Why does it matter anyway, I do not think that a married priest who is the love god child, which in reality mights be a little happier …

No. The priests knew that when they become priests who are following the example and teachings of St. Paul to the people who serve God.
They know they are married and therefore the church must not have a wife.
There are certain special makes special privileges to obtain a priest and a women but that is rare.
Paul explains that if you have a wife who is more concerned with pleasing your wife that God and the same goes for women who have a husband. Jesus also said that there were people who married life for the glory of God.
So I do not think that will ever change this, and I hope not.

In its comments about the women in high positions, "which has tot understand that the Church has men and women to equality, but do not have the same jobs.
The man is the head of household, the woman is the heart of the family. They work together, not individually, and although no women priests can not be held from high office. We have the Mothers and Sisters Priests whom the praise and they constantly are in position to help to thousands of people and they do.
Priests feed for their herds during the Mass, the nuns, but feed their sheep the rest of the time. Undoubtedly, they have the power and many of them are in high positions and are in charge of all the monasteries, but you have to understand the difference.
Women are not priests, Jesus chose men to be parents for a reason. If he wanted women priests who were women who were prepared: his mother, Martha, Maria and the others that I have voluntarily turned in some of its desciples but not because he was elsewhere and other powers that the twelve men.
It was the woman that the crucifix stood at longer. Were women who were the first ones down there on the third day and so on.
