    I tried finding the case I was speaking of, but couldn't. All I found was this.

    Annunciations

    That case in canon law does allow an already married anglican priest to become a catholic priest... even though he is married. That may be the only way that a priest can be married in the Catholic Church.

    It bothered me when I found that out. But, I've yet to come across a priest that's married in my entire life.

    And that, my son, is part of the 2%. Nothing biblical in it! (Ducks down and runs for cover while the RC members pelt him with tomatoes - tinned ones!)

    I think it a bit ripe, marriage advice from someone who is a priest precisely because of the type of character it seems to attract. A sort of very personable loner. Not what marriage is really about...

    You cannot fairly group Catholic priests as "personable loners." I'm guessing you're not Catholic, and haven't spent much time w/ the clergy because you would find that to be an unfair judgment.

    To true mkloby.It is grossly unfair to generalise.I know a few priests who are genuine ,decent people who do their best for people.They do a very difficult job with little or no thanks from from people.A lot of people are openly hostile to them,because of the actions of a terrible group within the church and the criminal cover-ups of the higherarchie.Not a calling for the faint hearted.
