How can a priest be married?? Baka civil marriage lang.
Matagal nang may ganyan, eh ano suggestion nyo?
Putol kamay? Pugot ulo? That's Orcish... that's Islamic.
Eh heto narinig nyo na si Martin Luther na Catholic Monk! Hala! Controversial! hahaha
Kapag Pinarusahan yan like sinunog ng buhay sa utos ng mga pari, then yun ang mali... padagdag pa sa mali na ginawa nya...
gaya ng sumunog kay St. John of Arc...
In the end sino ang recognized Saint? Eh di yung sinunog hindi ang nanunog.
Ang Celibacy Practice ito ng mga pari... isa sa mga discipline nila. Hindi ka matatanggal sa pagkakatoliko porke nag-asawa ka. Ang daming pari ang mga dating may asawa may mga biyudo pa (Namatay ang asawa tapos nagpari)
Itong paring ito gustong isulong na alisin ang Celibacy sa pagpapari... eh hindi naman tama yun. Kung gusto nya may asawa eh di ordinaryong layman na lang siya wag yung pari.
Ang Celibacy ay practice ng Church hindi Dogma.
Bago si Muhammad hindi naman binabaliwala ang Celibacy pinapractice na ito ng mga pari na taga sunod ni Jesus... si Muhammad binaluktot ang lahat dahil manyakis siya, inalis niya yun... para siya pwedeng mang-asawa ng 9 year old na bata.
Yung Pari na pumapatol sa mga bata gaya ng mga posts nyo, yun controversial talaga ang nag-aasawa bigla hindi yun ganun ka-controversial. Priests are humans too... ano tingin nyo mga anghel sila? hahaha nagkakasala rin yan. Yun nga lang mas bawal sa kanila magkasala kumpara sa ordinaryong tao.. haha
Matt. 19:11-12 - Jesus says celibacy is a gift from God and whoever can bear it should bear it. Jesus praises and recommends celibacy for full-time ministers in the Church. Because celibacy is a gift from God, those who criticize the Church's practice of celibacy are criticizing God and this wonderful gift He bestows on His chosen ones.
Matt. 19:29 - Jesus says that whoever gives up children for the sake of His name will receive a hundred times more and will inherit eternal life. Jesus praises celibacy when it is done for the sake of His kingdom.
Matt. 22:30 - Jesus explains that in heaven there are no marriages. To bring about Jesus' kingdom on earth, priests live the heavenly consecration to God by not taking a wife in marriage. This way, priests are able to focus exclusively on the spiritual family, and not have any additional pressures of the biological family (which is for the vocation of marriage). This also makes it easier for priests to be transferred to different parishes where they are most needed without having to worry about the impact of their transfer on wife and children.
1 Cor 7:1 – Paul teaches that it is well for a man not to touch a woman. This is the choice that the Catholic priests of the Roman rite freely make.
1 Cor. 7:7 - Paul also acknowledges that celibacy is a gift from God and wishes that all were celibate like he is.
1 Cor. 7:27 – Paul teaches men that they should not seek marriage. In Paul’s opinion, marriage introduces worldly temptations that can interfere with one’s relationship with God, specifically regarding those who will become full-time ministers in the Church.
1 Cor. 7:32-33, 38 - Paul recommends celibacy for full-time ministers in the Church so that they are able to focus entirely upon God and building up His kingdom. He “who refrains from marriage will do better.”
1 Tim. 3:2 - Paul instructs that bishops must be married only once. Many Protestants use this verse to prove that the Church's celibacy law is in error. But they are mistaken because this verse refers to bishops that were widowers. Paul is instructing that these widowers could not remarry. The verse also refers to those bishops who were currently married. They also could not remarry (in the Catholic Church's Eastern rite, priests are allowed to marry; celibacy is only a disciplinary rule for the clergy of the Roman rite). Therefore, this text has nothing to do with imposing a marriage requirement on becoming a bishop.
1 Tim. 4:3 - in this verse, Paul refers to deceitful doctrines that forbid marriage. Many non-Catholics also use this verse to impugn the Church's practice of celibacy. This is entirely misguided because the Catholic Church (unlike many Protestant churches) exalts marriage to a sacrament. In fact, marriage is elevated to a sacrament, but consecrated virginity is not. The Church declares marriage sacred, covenantal and lifegiving. Paul is referring to doctrines that forbid marriage and other goods when done outside the teaching of Christ and for a lessor good. Celibacy is an act of giving up one good (marriage and children) for a greater good (complete spiritual union with God).
1 Tim. 5:9-12 - Paul recommends that older widows take a pledge of celibacy. This was the beginning of women religious orders.
2 Tim. 2:3-4 - Paul instructs his bishop Timothy that no soldier on service gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim his to satisfy the One who enlisted him. Paul is using an analogy to describe the role of the celibate priesthood in the Church.
Rev. 14:4 - unlike our sinful world of the flesh, in heaven, those consecrated to virginity are honored.
Isaiah 56:3-7 - the eunuchs who keep God's covenant will have a special place in the kingdom of heaven.
Jer. 16:1-4 - Jeremiah is told by God not to take a wife or have children.
A Catholic priest in Australia has made a controversial revelation: he has been married to a Filipina for a year now.
According to Yahoo! Australia's 7News, Father Kevin Lee, a priest for 20 years in Glenmore Park, Sydney, admits "living a double life" with his wife Josephina, whom he met in the Philippines.
“So I've fallen in love and I've got married and it's outside of most people's awareness, but I'm sure people within the church could have had a suspicion,” Lee told 7News.
The Australian priest claimed that there are many others like him and that he pitied those “sacrificing” priests around the world who are denying themselves a relationship.
“That's one of the reasons that motivated me to make public my admission that I'm one of those people who's been a pretender: To draw to the attention of the public that there are more like me, in fact most of them,” Lee was quoted as saying.
“I feel sorry for them, I really do, but I think they need to admit they are not being led properly. I think celibacy has to go as a prerequisite for being a minister in the Catholic religion,” he added.
While urging for the abolition of celibacy, Lee also plans to write a book about what he believes is the wider wrongdoing of fellow priests.
However, after making a public confession of his marriage, 7News reported that Lee has been removed from his position as parish priest and has been excommunicated by the church.
The head of the diocese, Bishop Anthony Fisher, denied Lee's claim that most priests live double lives and that the hierarchy knew of his marriage.
“As Father Kevin is aware, by his actions he can no longer operate as a priest and as a result I will immediately be appointing an administrator to Padre Pio parish,” Fisher said in a statement.
Kahit ilang mga katoliko naliligaw ng landas, it won't change the fact that Jesus is Good and of course his CHURCH remains holy di ba??? Parang mga lantang dahon na nagsisihulog ang mga gumagawa ng kasalanan kumakalas sa tree... sa branch na nakadugtong sa stem... sa stem na nakadugtong sa root...
Ang problema sa ISLAM ang root nila nang-aasawa ng 9 year old.. minasaker ang 800 katao, patuloy pa ring pumapatay hanggang ngayon sa ngalan ni Muhammad na yan.
Jesus is not good (according to himself). He is a racist.
wala naman shocking sa news eh, dapat nga magasawa na sila para hindi na nila sundin ang doktrina ng devil hihi uki payn
guess what sinong asawa ng australian priest?
