POPE FRANCIS : WHY NOT CHANGE THE CELIBACY RULES !


The history of the Catholic Church is littered with  sexual scandals !  Is this not due to the Vow of Celibacy which Priests are obliged to take !   Over the centuries many have regularly been caught, but  does that not also mean that many other guilty priests were not caught !

Some Popes even married and had children.  Some fathered illegitimate ones !  Monks and Nuns were also found guilty !

Women cannot be ordained since the year 352 !  Why ?  Are they more guilty than the men ?  Do they really merit  being treated as an inferior second class type of Human Being in 2016 ?

Jesus had a Mother and a Father, but did HE condemn Women ?  Did HE insist on Celibacy ?  Why then does the Roman Catholic Church have such unnatural rules ?

Today, Pope Francis, like many Popes before him, is also embarrassed by paedophile scandals among his Priests.  

Faithful worshippers, want and deserve, a modern Church to guide them, but without its archaic principles !  If Priests could marry,  would they not be very happy to serve their Church as upright Catholic examples of their  community !

Pope Francis, why not change the celibacy rules ?  YOU as Pope, are the only person who could bring about such a change !  Why not start now ?   You would discover overwhelming popular support !
