But just as it is for Anglican/Episcopal priests who do not marry, celibacy for ordained clergy is the rule of the Roman Church. But that is not the issue here. The issue is that Father Cutie made a vow to keep that rule, and didn't. And further, that The Episcopal Church ™ would jump at the chance to take him in as a pastor says volumes about TEC’s current moral standards (or lack thereof)......CLIFFORDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16404394356250504673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-839722827888249291.post-12354986016045692382009-05-11T13:56:00.000-05:002009-05-11T13:56:00.000-05:00Christianity at the beginning never expected its c...Christianity at the beginning never expected its clergy to be celibate.

Every one of them seems to be infected with pathological narcissism. Of course a Catholic priest who can't keep his rocket in his pocket is a bad priest...and shouldn't be welcomed into another church.<br /><br />Why is the Episcopal Church enabling this kind of bad behavior?<br /><br />Then again, like attracts like. That's why the ECUSA is rapidly becoming little more than Sicko Central.beyond fed upnoreply@blogger.com
