I have never been a Catholic, so maybe that it the reason that I don't understand. But it seems terribly naive for anyone to believe what this man has to say. A well-adjusted man of normal human sexual appetite simply would not become a Roman Catholic priest. It would be a deviant lifestyle even if one of them were able to fulfill a vow of celibacy. All of this man's talk about liking "girls" reminds me of the quote "methinks the lady doth protest too much".
Well I disagree with that. I mean Celibacy involves a lot more than just absense of SEX.
Again looking at marraige lately and the adultry rates once could make a arguemnt using data that MARIIAGE was unnatural
You are quite right that marriage, as it is practiced nowadays is about as unnatural as celibacy.
Of course, I am ignorant of the matter, but I did not know that celibacy involved more than taking a vow to abstain from any and all sexual activities and relationships. This may be practical for a man of the age of the Apostle Paul when he wrote about the gift of contentment without marriage, as well as the widows that he wrote about. But any man of the age of the seminarian in this article knows that if he abstains from sexual gratification for just a short period of time, he will have "wet-dreams", and in these "wet-dreams" he will engage in sexual activities which he would never do while awake. Well I hope I am not being too explicit, but there is a devil to tempt us, and the Apostle Paul tells us that to avoid fornication, every man should have one wife. Nowadays the lying hypocrites are trying to tell young people to practice "abstinence" until they are way up in their twenties, which is just ridiculous. My wife and I married when we were both 17 and it sure was hard to wait that long. You are certainly right that the way marriage/divorce/adultery is usually practiced nowadays is just as deviant as celibacy.
What the Catholics do would not be anyone else's business anyway if they had not molested millions of children and then covered it up.
