Voice From the Peripheries, Married Priests Are No Solution

To ordain married men to the priesthood is not a “realistic solution” according to the excellent Bishop Kai Schmalhausen Panizo, the prelate of Ayaviri, Peru.

Talking to the German newspaper Die Tagespost (January 27), Schmalhausen said that the idea of married priests is the result of “pressure” and of a search for solutions that is “desperate”, adding, “This is precisely why such solutions are not healthy.”

For Schmalhausen abolishing celibacy would convey a wrong message to young people: “You cannot live celibacy. It is impossible to follow Jesus in this radical love to serve the neighbour.”

Thank you, good bishop. To allow married priests is a big step towards Protestantism, which is exactly what many in the Vatican want. Priests should be celibate or if they can't , then get married. You can't have it both ways.

They ARE acting desperate. This article confirms what has seemed to me to be the case with all of these cringe-worthy ideas they will say are the "new evangelization" in action. Where is their faith?

You all make me sick. With over 200 heresies I'm vatican 2 and the complete and total destruction desecration of the Holy Mass you think now all your little social issues are going to make a difference, that they supersede in importance and value the Holy Mass that you destroyed. What a joke. It makes no difference to our lord what issues you fight over since you already desecrated the only thing that restored your heart and soul with god and put you in good standing with Him. Now you are in a state of sin with no way out. And you thing your Petty social issues will suffice.
When you desecrated the Mass you loss the Grace and Blessing of God for ever. If you understood the true meaning of the Holy Latin Mass you would have found there in all that would be needed to keep these social issues whole and immutable. All the truths and principles Blessings and Grace received from the Holy sacrifice if the alter you would have in guiding your way in the future. Abortion would not be a issue from the cross you would know its a sin. Women and girls would not have babys out of wedlock. There would be no issues on married priests or giving communion to people in a state of sin. But because you desecrated the Holy Mass there by desecrating God Himself you are in a state of sin with NO ANSWERS fighting over Trifles that you made more important than the Body and Blood of Christ. You are the cause of making social issues supersede the Holy sacrifice of the alter along with over 200 heresies of vatican 2. Now you have to suffer what is to come upon you in your state of mortal Sin.
