The greater the good the harder the devil works. I believe your friend. They should never have let gays into the seminaries.

True it's the Ordinary’s call, just same as whether he wants celibate deacons or married deacons or no deacons.

Not all priest's take a vow of poverty. That is voluntary. Secular priests ( the ones that run parish's do not generally take it). Religious Order priests commonly do take a vow of poverty. They generally do not run a parish unless it is deemed necessary by the ordinary. There work oftern involves other ministries.

Well the media is stupid and Francis does not speak English. So the door’s wide open on what he said and in which language.

Tsk tsk... That's NO way to; ahem; turn the other cheek...Just my application of Aquinas' Just War Theory. Proportional response, meaning proportional to what is necessary to prevent further "assault".

Sex, sex, sex! Is that really all anyone cares about? So that's all that marriage is to you.Assuming you're a guy your wife must be thrilled to be with you.I'm about as big a knuckledragger as you'll find among guys and marriage is much,*more* than just sex to me and has been since I was about 18.Before that age,maybe not.

Help me out??There is a similar thread going on at FR right now.
Perhaps I've been blending and/or merging ides in my replies.
