Jeg leste nettopp en artikkel<\/a> om gifte katolske prester i USA. Over 70 slike er intervjuet til en bok som snart kommer ut, og om noen m\u00e5neder vil USA f\u00e5 ca 100 nye gifte katolske prester – siden Ordinariatet for tidligere anglikanere n\u00e5 starter opp der. (Jeg tror for\u00f8vrig tallet p\u00e5 gifte prester i USA i dag (ca 80) er satt for lavt, og at det er forvirrende \u00e5 knytte dette til «the Pastoral Provision» som pave Johannes Paul innf\u00f8rte for anglikanere i 1980 – siden det var pave Pius XII som tillot den f\u00f8rste gifte mannen (en tidligere luthersk prest i Tyskland) \u00e5 bli ordinert allerede i 1950.)<\/em> Artikkelen svarer bl.a. p\u00e5 sp\u00f8rsm\u00e5lene om gifte prester arbeider mer eller mindre enn de ugifte, om de kan administrere menigheter og om de ugifte prestene er misunnelige:<\/p>\n

… there is the practical belief that \u201cif a man\u2019s not married, he\u2019s able to devote himself more fully and exclusively to his parish.\u201d But he has found that married priests are usually aided, not hindered, by their wives, who are very committed to the parish. And he adds that celibate priests can be less accessible than married priests.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe truth is that celibate priests often have ways of walling themselves off,\u201d Father Sullins says. \u201cIf you call a celibate priest\u2019s rectory in the middle of the night, you\u2019ll likely get an answering machine. But if you call a married priest in the middle of the night, and he is disinclined to go out, he will get an elbow from his life partner, saying, \u2018Hey, you committed yourself to this work.\u2019 <\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to say the difference is great, but if there is a difference, it\u2019s in favor of the married priest.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since 1980, the Roman Catholic Church has shown a preference for celibate clergymen by preventing married priests from being pastors of parishes, unless circumstances dictated it. The priests entering the church as part of the new ordinariate for former Episcopalians will be exceptions to that rule. And because of a shortage of priests in the United States, circumstances have already put married priests in charge of parishes.<\/p>\n

… (AND) … I found no evidence that celibate priests resent their married colleagues. Although a small number of theologians and canon lawyers have been critical of the 1980 Pastoral Provision, it seems that working priests are not troubled.<\/p>\n

Even Father Newman, for example, who believes celibacy is an important countercultural statement \u2014 a celibate priest \u201chas staked his life on the premise that this life is not all there is, and he is putting his flesh on the line\u201d \u2014 says the church can accommodate exceptions. Referring to another married priest he knew in South Carolina, Father Newman said, \u201cthere was an intuitive grasp among everybody that this was an exception to the norm, and there was no injustice being done to lifelong Catholics who became priests knowing celibacy was part of that.\u201d <\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
