+ | *'''Allowing priests to marry would not increase vocations.''' [http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A31091-2004Nov6.html "Should Roman Catholic Priests Be Allowed to Marry?". Washington Post. November 7, 2004]: "I have heard some who state that it would lead to an increase in vocations, but there is not a single piece of statistical data to prove that. Of those who have contemplated a vocation to the priesthood, very few have stated that a vow of celibacy was a stumbling block that they could not overcome. In fact, I have known of many ordained individuals who see celibacy as a blessing, and as a way to allow them to focus more on their vocation of service to others and to the church." | ||
