" Anglicans believe marriage is for mutual joy instead of procreation and the priests can marry. The Lord's prayer is recited slightly differently, but otherwise the liturgy is even the same. I know "

however, many years ago the Catholic Church revised their thinking to state that marriage ( and sex , naturally) were for procreation AND the mutual enjoyment of the couple....

and did you know that there are some men who are priests that were once married, and have grown children?..

Yes, I did know that there are Catholic priests who were once married, but they are celibate widowers, correct?
