He did the right thing. Instead secretly commiting sin. Paul said to avoid fornication every man should have his own wife. God bless him

Do they really? I have always wondered if they secretly had girlfriends but I have never come across any story of such. I really felt they were innocent

Apart from paedophilia, i mean

Lol!!

I hope he is accomplished now.

Sadly he still crave for, and celebrate the "mass" that is resigned from. So, from all the things going on, one is correct to say it was marriage and procreation that was his problem, and not Catholicism that he made people to believe.

Congratulations to nwa Fada!

Apart from paedophilia, i mean

Some have affairs with women (and men). Some have affairs with nuns. They're only human, and women especially have so much respect/admiration for them (and confide in them during difficult times). It's only natural that they may stray. I suspect that's why some of them serve in remote areas where there's less temptation.

And despite the crimes against women and children, and the Catholic Church hiding it, most priests are not abusers.

I need somebody to educate me. Where in the Bible is priest celibacy commanded? As far as
I know Eli the priest had sons. Some of the disciples were married except for some who chose not to marry. But for the catholic church to have celibacy upon them as part of their service journey is what I have never truly understood.

It was actually to make sure that the priests property and wealth went back into the church after he died, instead of to any wife/children he might have

I dont think it has a scriptural basis, it was just to amass wealth for the church

I dont agree with it at all, they are humans too and they get lonely

I remember being so curious about it that I checked reddit to see if anyone had ever slept with a priest before lol

And yes exactly, you always see women who are so wowed by their priest... I used to wonder wow, doesnt he feel anything at all

They're probably going to allow priests to marry soon, so he can resume that.

They're losing priests because of that, so they changed their view .

Let us compare the number of priests who left the Catholic Church with number of pastors who moved from one denomination to another

why not be busy trying to understand why you were born in the first place and the purpose you were sent to earth to achieve.

I have never agreed it with. Why confine them to celibacy on paper when dem dey lash nuns and molest young boys?

Thank you for explaining. I have always questioned this.

Catholic priesthood is not for everyone. It is for the strong-willed. It involves huge sacrifices. The reward extremely outweighs the sacrifices.
The former priest wasn't strong enough to swim against the current of the lust of the flesh and the world. He could not witness to Christ and the celibacy that Christ stood for and recommended for those who would willingly share in His chaste and Priestly ministry.
Mr. Edet has achieved what he wanted. There's more to that than meets the eye. The ultimate destination is Heaven, for those who truly believe.
I wish him well.

But the Catholic doesn't Force one to become a priest. Why become a priest knowing fully well the rules and if you can't abide by them??

The church has it rules, Catholic priesthood is not suited for every man. They say 'many are called but few are chosen'..
