Topic Reading-Vol.1805-3/21/2017

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Pope signals he's open to married Catholic men becoming priests
Clerical celibacy. It is the requirement in some religions that members of the clergy be unmarried. Except for a small number of exemptions, this has been one of the respected traditions in Roman Catholic.
Though this might not be the only reason that has caused a shortage of priests in the centuries old religious mainstream, the top of the church suggested that the church might allow already-married men to become their priests. This could open the door to those whose faith is different to convert, or followers of the religion to become a priest.
Will this move create a considerable number of new Catholic priests?
Enjoy reading and thinking about pros and cons of Clerical celibacy.
