It is a Catholic priest closer to God, because it rejects the married life?
If I reject marriage, love and being a devoted father, I will be closer to God? If I do not want anything to do with children, marriage or any kind of normal life in general would lose in any god wants experience?

If the priests marry, they leave and the money belonging to the families. The CC does not want this. At the time this standard was approved, the priests were wealthy and had some power. The CC did not like this. Ending the families and the CC has it all. Doing homework, search the halls of chestnuts, for example. Things were very different for priests at that time.
The Catholic requirement of celibacy is a sad example of the Church to take something the Bible encourages, and make it a requirement in order to protect their own interests. Sadder still, is the damage has been done as a result of anti-Roman Catholic biblical requirement. The men whom God has gifted and called to be celibate (1 Corinthians 7:7), are being forced to be celibate, and the result is terrible failure in the areas of adultery, fornication, and sexual abuse of children.
In reviewing the Council of Carthage (AD 419), not where do you find anything on celibacy.
Not only value marriage, but those who condemn marriage as one of the "foods which God created to be" hypocritical. (1 Tim. 4:1-3)
Another factor in the effort to clerical celibacy was the problematic relationship of the Catholic Church had with real estate and land inherited. The priests and bishops were not only religious leaders, political power is also based on the land they controlled. When they died, the land can go to church or the heirs of the man - and of course the church wanted to keep the land in order to maintain political power.
The best way to keep the land was to ensure that we can not pretend that their rivals, while maintaining the celibacy of the clergy and indeed was the easiest way to accomplish this. Making celibacy a religious obligation was also the best way of ensuring that clergy obeyed. Catholic apologists deny that such worldly concerns were part of the decision to impose celibacy for priests, but can not be coincidence that the final push toward celibacy was when the conflict over land are increasing.
Just my thoughts!
No, there is evidence that a priest celibacy brings closer to God.
Many people would say it is better for a minister to marry and raise a family, because in that sense that he / she would be much closer to his congregation.
Paul speaks in Corinthians …. Marriage is God ordained. However, her husband will take a share of his attention, which has self-control could be given to God alone. As with 2 children instead of one. If you were to have one, you could devote full attention to one child. If you have two, you can still give them the care they need, but not the amount that if you only had one. Paul encourages people who have self-control to stay pure to consider devoting all his time and attention to God and his ministry, though not a commandment, he says.
No … None of the leaders of Roman Catholics, will in Heaven … unless otherwise mannager to know the truth of the message of salvation and come to God in the manner prescribed.
Actulay priest Catholic law forbids the teaching of the truth of salvation.
Celibacy is not a requirement for entry into heaven.
Nobody in the Church (the true Christian faith) could never be of the direction of the Roman castholics …. Actually, there are some among the people of the Catholic Church is … but none of the priests or popes are, or ever have been.
There is only one church … and Catholics do not.
No.
Priests would be allowed to marry.
Because they were married, even the Apostles, and the Bible says it is …. well if you want to be married, go ahead. God says that sex is normal and to enjoy with your spouse.
The Bible only says that if someone does not feel the need to marry, as are the direction of his life to a Christian service, where a family could jeopardize or disadvantaged in some way-that was a good thing too. But only if the person really felt led not to marry.
For example, some missionaries who knew he was going into dangerous territory. Or is going to live in abject poverty in which it would be unfair to try to have a family. A person can choose not to marry then.
But it would be the election of a person. Not a requirement.
Besides the idea of priests is evil anyway. Jesus is the mediator now, once and for all between God and men. We no longer need priests, and to offer the daily sacrifice.
This is why Jesus said: "It is finished".
No, he's probably closer to Satan, because if a god does not want to have sex, you would have no genitalia is not it? Now the priests who do not use what they have been given will do a service to Satan. You can call KISS (men at the service of Satan)
Jesus himself commended celibacy
"Not everyone can accept this saying, save they to whom it is granted. Some are unable to marry because they were born so, some because they were made so by others, some because they have renounced marriage for the sake of the kingdom of God. Who can accept this should accept "(Mt 19:11-12).
Paul endorses celibacy for those capable of it: "To the unmarried and the widows I say it's okay to remain single as I do. But if they can exercise self-control, they should marry. Because it is better to marry than to be aflame with passion "(7:8-9).
"Are you free from a wife? Do not seek marriage … Those who marry will have worldly problems, and I would like to spare …. The unmarried man is concerned with things of the Lord, how to please the Lord, but the married man cares about worldly affairs, how to please his wife and his interests are divided. And the unmarried woman or girl is anxious about the affairs of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit, but the marriage the woman is concerned about worldly affairs, how to please her husband "(7:27 — 34).
Taken a vow of celibacy in the Catholic Church voluntarily.
No. I know many married laymen as well as Orthodox priests who have married wonderful fulfillment of the spiritual life. I prefer to confess to a married priest who knows my struggle with my wife and family. There are churches that allow married priests.
Not necessarily. I think that on his true path to happiness is closer to what deity you believe is real. Or even not be real for that matter. You have to be honest with yourself to be happy.
"I want to **** you like an animal, their whole existence is flawed, it brings me closer to God"
That song more or less sums it up.
God's intention for you is to marry and procreate. Priests do not because they must take a vow of poverty and abstinence.
You idiots have never been poor, obviously, married, I'd say it's likely that some relaxation and happiness derived from the freedom to do what he wants without being disturbed.
The priests are celibate because the Vatican decided way back when it was cheaper to pay the salary of one man an entire family (as the Church pays the salary of a priest).
But a church which still supports a ban on the Bible incorporated inqusition pedophilia and torture of men, women and children and the witch hunt?
No. The Catholic Church made this rule because they do not want to support the wife and kids and want priests to dedicate her life to God, not just free time.
No, he is closer to mental illness. Celibacy is unnatural sexual perversion.
I think Paul would say yes.
I Corinthians 7:27 Art thou bound unto a wife? do not try to be loosed. Are you free from a wife? not seek a wife.
It's closer than homosexuality.
if all these things we refused to be closer to God, the world wouldnt play it seems foolish to take things God intended for us to make a good life and allow us to reproduce
My vote would be, a Catholic priest is not closer to God, because it rejects the married life?
No, just a little off lol.
God does not want us to marry
