Celibacy of Priests

Results | Messages | Flag
According to a USA Today/CNN/Gallup poll, seventy five percent of Catholics favor allowing priests to marry. Whoa. How disappointing. So, no one can be celibate? No one can go without sex? If I fall prey to a disease that renders me incapable of having sex then I should.....end it all? Come on, PEOPLE!! Let's get with the program!! I've decided to take my own little poll using the same questions which were on the USA Today/CNN/Gallup poll. Visit my siteCatholic Commentary. Take the poll
