I disapprove of requiring preists to be celibate.
I hardly see why it matters.
It's not a secret after all!
If you don't want to live celibate,
WHY on earth would you want to be a catholic priest?!
We each choose our own path.
It's the fact that the RC claims we NEED
these priests (men) for a FULL experience of God....
it is a man-ipulative belief that keeps many of the masses
from experiencing God in FULLNESS
everywhere... and in all things.
Still people ... individuals CHOOSE their own beliefs...
so (just as with the choice of celabacy)
the institution can hardly be blamed.
On the other hand...
there are some (many?) who would NEVER find God in everything,
so at least He is there...
real for them...
in the eucharist.
Wherever you connect with God,
is a good thing.
