Do you agree that Catholic priests should be allowed to marry?

Yes, and I am a Catholic. If people research the true reasons that the priests were forbidden to marry (I had to do with property and inheritance in medieval church), which could see the strange and outdated concept of reality is clerical celibacy. I have many friends Bishop and his priests can marry, but does not appear to be less effective priests in any way. Moreover, the insistence on celibacy has a lot of good men from the priesthood. How many people are willing, in this day and age, to sacrifice their sexuality and the ability of normal human intimacy?

  1. solarius says:

    perhaps it would reduce the number of pedophiles in the church

  2. lily says:

    No, that is part of the faith and know the rules when they go preists at the seminar - who do not want to marry

  3. Endora says:

    The church decided that priests can not marry because he had so many people claiming ownership of any church, because the priest had so many children who claimed to have the legal right of ownership.

  4. bocasbea says:

    I believe in that strength to be celibate priests, who receive a large number of priests to be celibate does not matter (* cough * * cough * child molestors).
      When the priests were allowed to marry, I think we will have a large number of applicants who heals well, people with normal sex drives. Furthermore, wants a virgin for marriage counseling?

  5. Elesia says:

    Yes I do. Why do not they? Is that not everyone always says that the sex is so natural and not a sin? If you are not allowed to marry and have children, then it would be unnatural. Either that, or cruel and unusual punishment.

  6. Wolfshad says:

    Yes, me.

  7. angel says:

    Yes, I think we should .. San Pablo only made a suggestion at the time of the persecution of ministers. their lives are quite difficult and would be even harder to see their families to death for their belief in Christ!

  8. Stormcha says:

    it is done by writing
    1Cor.79 But if you can not contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than burning.

  9. revdauph says:

    Of course they should.
      Otherwise, how can they give advice on marriage?

  10. ܐܠܗܐالله Allah is God. says:

    I think some problems aleviate

  11. ronnysox says:

    A couple of points.
      First in a series of parts of the Catholic Church, married men become priests. The rules are the rules that no doctrine.
      Secondly, going back in the early church priests and deacons can not marry unless they had young children and widows.
      Thirdly, both Jesus and Paul recommended celibacy, but nor need it.
      Fourthly, all unmarried Christians are forced to remain celibate. Celibate priests do not promise, promise not to marry in order to serve only God. Sex is permissible only within marriage.
      Fifth, the Catholic clergy have child molesters in the clergy, but the incidence rate is 1/6th the rate in the general population. The Church is very good to keep clergy abuse. However, since the majority of abusers are master manipulators move. The rate of abuse by married men is actually much higher. Moreover, the problem of pedophiles and some others not mentioned as Sociopathy are higher in a number of denominations with married clergy. It is not that celibacy is the problem. People who are pedophiles are attracted to places that have children, such as churches, schools, coaching soccer and baseball, and Scouting. I note that Jim Jones, who massacred hundreds of members of his own denomination was ordered despite the fact that I knew it was crazy and only nominally Christian. Group decision-making failures occur in all groups.
      Sixth, the priests do not seem to be complaining. Nor were the candidates for the priesthood seem to be well complain.
      Finally, if you are not going to consider the priesthood, then what does it really matter to you? If you really wanted to be married and a priest is not actually a completely closed, only the majority. However, do not guarantee a dedicated clergy. To devote everything to Jesus, not so much to maintain. Paid trivial, no control of where they live, giving up the marriage, all to follow Jesus. Foxes have holes and birds the trees, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head. Even in Mein Kampf Hitler discusses the celibacy of Catholic clergy as a problem to his rise to power. In his view, co-Protestant communities would be easy, but the Catholic Church was a serious danger to him. He spent a long time before the break began to kill people. That worked brilliantly in the destruction of many and the embarrassment of almost all Catholic and Protestant Christian communities.

  12. OPM says:

    —— Yes, it helps them to understand the family and male / female relationships better.
      However, it should not be mandatory. Da many homosexuals find a place for the performance in their chosen work. And I do not mean it is a rude way.

  13. Shossi says:

    Yes

  14. impossbl says:

    yes

  15. Private P says:

    Yes, I agree. Nothing to say that marriage can not serve God and at the same time …. but I also think that women should be allowed to become priests, too.

  16. Darth Darwin says:

    Yeas rabbis can marry, why not do the job. If it can be tempting to marry a pedophile would the Church. and no longer would be a shame Employment gays can hide in.

  17. Wilhelm says:

    Well, first I think we should stop bothering you guys. After that happens then talk.

  18. Laura says:

    Yes, even Jesus was married. And Jesus said that nothing should come between people when they are in love and having children.

  19. MrKnowIt says:

    Yes, there is no biblical support for priests not to marry

  20. LeBizzle says:

    If they are all married priests who have sex with nuns, ja ja

  21. Ishfaq A says:

    If they are kept away from children shortly after insurance!

  22. Depth of Perception says:

    There should be no religious doctrine keeping celebate priests. Peter was married, why can not it be?

  23. The GMC says:

    Yes, that may help reduce the pedophiles and adulterers that prevail in that church.
