“Don’t we have the right to take a believing wife along with us, as do the other apostles and the Lord’s brothers and Cephas?”

I never understood why priests had to be celibate in the first place.

A family man with wife and children could be a great priest - having children is an experience you cannot understand until you have some.

If he "saw the danger" he shouldn't have "fled from the wolves."

Now, we are at the mercy of the wolves with few left to defend us. But unlike His cowardly vicar, Christ will not abandon us.
