    They need more of guy's like this as bishops (even if they laicize them later, at least it will not be because they are pedos):

    You think now might finally be the time to recruit a few straight priests and let them marry?

    The priests can't marry thing is such chinsanity to me. It's just begging for trouble. And they've certainly found it.
    I understand the historical context somewhat for how having a celebrate clergy came about. But in this day and age how can the church think you are going to get anything but a very high percentage a strange dudes as priests with current policy? It's against the laws of nature to not be allowed some sexy time.
    The Catholic Church only stopped saying mass in Latin in the 60s. They’re a little slow when it comes to adapting to the times.
    I agree, but Joseph Campbell once explained why they kept doing it for so long. It was an attempt to make the experience of hearing mass the same no matter where you were on earth. You would feel at home no matter what, at least in theory. Campbell also said that the original Latin was much more eloquent to listen to than the English, French, Spanish and German translations.

    Nothing makes me feel more at home than people speaking a language I don't understand.

    It's a romantic idea.

    FS in practice.
