Noting that you don't agree with the Church on Humanae Vitae, I wonder are you interested in trying to change the Church in a general sense or are these two issues the only two which you have difficulty with?

I agree with the Church's teaching on Humanae Vitae; you make an assumption I don't because I raised questions that lots of Catholics raise. A mistake on your part.

Yes, I'd like to see married priests. I think the quality of priests in our Church today is less than it would be if we had a wider group of men from which to draw. Marriage is not an impediment to the priesthood, as the Orthodox have proven.

so you were just playing the devli's advocate?

One of the best priests in our diocese was a Episcopal convert and married. Needless to say, Steubenville University made him an offer he couldn't refuse :o)

One thing that I find hopeful is that some widowed men are opting to go to seminary and become priests in later life. Maybe this can become a trend...
