Ubenedictus: oga, that link never said the new pope was reconsidering celibacy. I ask again where did you get your rumour?

Ubenedictus: oga, that link never said the new pope was reconsidering celibacy. I ask again where did you get your rumour?

Ngenge: May God help d new pope to achieve his aim. Allow them to marry,biko. Madu,o bu ewu? Ewu de make love to him mama sef. Let d rev.sisters marry if them want. Chiekena

italo: There are homosexuals and pedophiles in the general society among those who are not celibate.

Celibacy has nothing to do with pedophilia and homosexuality.

Jesus and Paul were celibate, but were homosexuals and pedophiles.

There are many Catholic Priests like them.

big mo:
The first sentence from the article reads
"The Roman Catholic Church may be open to
discussing its long held requirement for priests to
lead a celibate life as it prepares for a new chapter
with the coming election of Pope Benedict XVI's
successor, some church leaders have said."
Which schools did you attend? Were you not taught comprehension and how to deduce answers to from questions extracted from å passage? Or you want me to start spoon feeding u or breast milk you.

ijawkid: If this is true then it would really help the image of the catholic church..........walahi!!!!!!!!..........priests would now be able to carry out there duties with all joy devoid of the constant happenings of pedophelia and homosexuality cases........

ijawkid:

But u should agree my bro that the human law of celibacy is indeed one of the causative of pedophilia amongst RCC priests...........the number of those who took the lead in the christian congregation after Jesus' ascension who were celibates was infinitesimal............I would have loved it if you mentioned like 10 of the apostles who were celibates or who were celibates because it was a requirement for service just as it is done in the RCC....

For you to deny that celibacy has nothing to do with homosexuality and pedophilia amongst priests of the RCC would be like denying that religion has little or nothing to do with naija's backwardness...............

Ubenedictus: hahaha, so you are unaware that married protestant pastors have been accused of pedophilia?
If marriage prevent pedophilia why didnt it prevent it for those protestant pastors?

Ubenedictus: i asked you earlier, if celibacy was the cause of pedophilia and homosexuality, please tell me why those behaviours are found among married members of the society.

italo: There are homosexuals and pedophiles in the general society among those who are not celibate.

Celibacy has nothing to do with pedophilia and homosexuality.

Jesus and Paul were celibate, but were They homosexuals and pedophiles?

There are many Catholic Priests like them.

italo: Saying that people engage in sexual immorality because they are celibate is like saying that people steal because they are poor.
A thief is a thief. One who cannot control the urge to take someone else's belonging when he is poor, will not be able to control the same urge when he is rich. Just look at our politicians if you need proof of that.

italo:
I tell you, a priest who cannot control his urge to engage in sexual immorality, will not be able to control it, even if he were married.

Do not forget that priests are not the only people required to be celibate.

Every unmarried Christian should be celibate.

italo:
Why are there so many homosexuals, pedophiles, rapists, porn artists, prostitutes, LovePeddler-mongers, perverts etc among unmarried people? Is it because they are required to be celibate?

No! It is because they are not fighting hard enough against the urge to sin.

ijawkid:

I'm nt saying marraige automatically prevents pedophilia or homosexuality,I'm only saying it naturally curtails it...depriving grown men the wonderful opportunity of being married according to Yahwehs arrangement because of some church duties or position is against Gods plan and thus leads to chaos......it is glaring that one of the reasons for homosexuality and pedophilia amongst the priestly class in the RCC is because they've abstained from marraige .............

Let them marry and you'll see normalcy......

ijawkid:

When you mention members of the society what or who do you mean exactly??....the entire human society that is under the influence of the ruler of this world(the devil) or professed practicers of Gods word??..........

The human enforced law on celibacy for priests like I've said is one good reason for the prevalent act of homosexuality and pedophilia amongst those who are priests........

Ok have you or any other person taken into account the ratio of pedophilia and homosexuality cases amongst the priestly class to that of the laity class??..........

How prevalent is this act amongst the laity class compared to the clergy class.....

Thank you....

ijawkid:
But you do know that we can correctly say that poverty is one good reason people steal....can't we??............even the book of proverbs says we should pray to God so that we don't become so poor that we resort to stealing.......we cannot deny the fact that poverty is one good reason why people steal........the same goes for the prevalent act of pedophilia and homosexuality amongst the priestly class in the RCC..........apart from imperfection and ones aTtitude towards immorality,abstinence from marraige is one good reason why these acts are seen among the clergy class.......you can't deny the obvious my bro.......

ijawkid: Unmarried christians should be celibate according to the scriptures until they are married not so??......that is scripturally correct and that is what God requires of unmarried individuals............now can you tell me what Gods requirement is for priests or those who wish to serve in the church from the scriptures??........

ijawkid: The reason why there are so many pedophiles,rapists and porn stars in the world is because they are being controlled by the devil.....those persons are part of the world........anything goes for them...........

italo:

Majority of people in the world are free to marry. Where is the normalcy in the world?

Besides, why do you care so much about the the sexual inclinations of people you have called "satan worshippers" anyway?

Something is wrong somewhere.
