Breaking News:
In what is an unprecedented move, the Vatican has opened the door to
the possibility of Catholic priests being allowed to marry. For centuries Catholic Church tradition has required celibacy from
priests and the Canon Law of the church clearly states: “Clerics are
obliged to observe perfect and perpetual continence for the sake of the
kingdom of heaven, and therefore are bound to celibacy, which is a
special gift of God by which sacred ministers can adhere more easily to
Christ with an undivided heart and are able to dedicate themselves more freely to the service of God and humanity.” However, Archbishop Pietro Parolin, the incoming No. 2 in the Catholic
Church when be becomes secretary of state next month, has declared
that priestly vow of celibacy derived from an age-old rule but was not
Catholic dogma. “It’s not a dogma of the Church and it can be discussed because it’s an
ecclesiastical tradition,” Archbishop Parolin told El Universal in
Venezuela, where he is completing his term as Papal Nuncio. This has been interpreted to mean that the church under reformist-minde
d Pope Francis I would welcome married priesthood if most Catholics so
desire. The number of priests has been declining steadily partly because of the
rule on celibacy. In the United States alone, about 30,000 priests have
left because they wanted to pursue a relationship. “I think it would be an enormously welcome conversation,” Thomas
Groome, a professor of theology at Boston College, USA, told
interviewers. “I think Catholics, certainly American Catholics, but
Catholics of the world, have been waiting for this conversation.” Groome said that the idea of complete celibacy among the clergy only
started to become standard practice in the 11th, 12th, and 13th
centuries, adding: “As far as we can tell from the Gospels, all of the apostles were married,
with the possible exception of John.” VIA Times Of London....
