How is that relevant to our argument?

You said Catholic priests can't be removed, that they are priests forever. I replied that, that is not true, priests can be removed from the priesthood.
You asked for the steps, I gave them to you, at least to the best of my knowledge.

You're now asking something else entirely.

I have backed up my argument that priests can be removed from the priesthood.
Please, back up your own argument that priests can't be removed from the priesthood or just rest.

Deadlytruth:
It is quite funny that you isolated resource control from all other elements of restructuring I mentioned e.g. LCDAs among other Lagos State centripetal policies I hinted at.
Secondly, the massive looting at Abuja is actually made possible by the presence there of a huge centralized purse courtesy of the current system. But on the contrary, resource control will actually reduce looting considering the fact that what will be available at each state will be at an average of one thirty sixth of what you presently have concentrated in Abuja so there will be less available to loot. Moreover, resource control will awaken the residents of all states to their responsibility of constantly demanding accountably from their governors and commissioners as the revenues in their states will come from their own sweat rather than as manna from Abuja. With resource control a lot of non-viable local government areas especially in the North will collapse and falsification of census figures will become unnecessary hence die a natural death. All these endless agitation for creation of more states will end once it becomes a law that each state will run her own affairs with funds generated from within her domains hence it will no longer be an issue of social injustice for the North to have 19 states against the South's 17 and that is if some Northern States don't collapse into others. Then with a leaner central purse courtesy of resource control, the federal government will be forced to stop contemplating crazy and wasteful policies like amnesty package for militans, bandits and terrorists; sponsoring of religious pilgrimages; tradermoni largesse; subsidy payments for importation of refined petroleum products and edibles like rice, chicken, and others; there will no longer enough funds to sustain the jumbo allowance of senators and representatives thus politics will become unattractive to political investors and therefore become a venture for accomplished veterans in different fields who will bring their professional experiences to bear on legislative business. Each state government will have no option than to look inwards into untapped resources in their respective states. Political investors will therefore be forced to invest in the real sector to the effect of stimulating productivity towards diversification thus reversing our net importer situation which is responsible for the ever falling value of the Naira to all other world currencies. All this will birth a new socio-economic order where every pay is earned as against the current one which encourages entitlement mentality, rent seeking, laziness, political thuggery, propensity towards TV shows like BB Naija, etc.
Positions like yours over this resource control question usually come from people who don't see the bigger picture.

Deadlytruth:
If everyone or at least majority vote based on issues, would there be any fear of widening the APC victory gap through voting for Moghalu?
Even the blame about the party rigging machinery you talk about still falls back on the followership because it is not the politicians of the parties that come out to do rigging but the voters themselves in exchange for gifts. Have you ever seen a politician carry a gun to disrupt voting in any election?
We have had examples in some states where voters took a principled stance against rigging by the party in power and succeed. Why can't Nigerians do so across all states of the federation for an obviously potentially good candidate if they sincerely desire a more result-oriented government?
I would disagree with your postulation that Northerners are more responsible for voting based on ethnoreligious sentiments than the South because in 1999 the SE and my own SS gave a combined higher percentage total votes on state by state basis to Obasanjo who was himself the candidate presented by the supposedly illiterate North and presented no manifesto, over the Falae who was the candidate of one of the regions of the more educated South and had a pragmatic manifesto. Then in 2003, Ojukwu, a long time graduate of the prestigious Oxford University and who was armed with the best and most practically realistic manifesto, couldn't even get convincingly voted by his own equally well educated South Eastern brothers let alone other regions. His attempt again in 2007 had the same outcome. So ethnoreligious and primordial sentiments are a general Nigerian disease regardless of level of literacy.

Fahdiga:
I'll respect your opinion and choice. Some might even say Bakayoko is the greatest ever and that's their choice

angelfallz:
Usually there is a canonical trial (that is the Catholic church's version of a court trial) and if the priest is found guilty of serious misconduct eg child molestation, he maybe be laicized(defrocked or removed from the priesthood)

Fahdiga:
What a day of mixed emotions. I'm happy to be alive to witness this day. Story for my grandchildren. They will all sit at my feet while I narrate how the greatest footballer ever left his childhood club

Prime1:
Bro... Not only priest... Some people (nun) also want to Bleep and have a child

angelfallz:
Bros you're obviously not a Catholic or maybe you're a Catholic but don't know how the Catholic church operates.

The Catholic church can remove priest.
