Good Evening All: There is much said by many about the current situation regarding the subject of married priests, i.e. "priests" as we all know them to be BUT with wives and children, not what we [R.C's.] are used to, USED TO, capitalized because that accuntates the current reality. However, when Christianity was in its beginnings, after the Ressurection, most of our Christian saints were married and had families, i.e. the Laiety. They were called Apostles or Disciples but not until years after they left this Earth. Most of those folks were men who had wives and children but were the ones who created the beginnings of what would become "Christianity". Today, and during the past generation, there has been a renewal of the kind of "Christian" participation which initially began the whole event. The common man, and of course woman, without titles, i.e. job descriptions, carrying the "Christ following" torch/reasoning. Those people don't go to a seminary school to learn how or what to say, primarily they "teach" the gospel's message by being examples to others of the way, The Way. It seems unimportant to me and, I believe, to our Lord, that the ability to assist others to understand-recognize The Way, The Truth and The Life doesn't require a specific title to be worthwhile, meaningful, successful, etc. And, most important is that the ability is enhanced when the message is delivered by a person who is known to have lived The Way. Love, Jack Sweeney, just one of the laiety of Palmer, Pennsylvania.
