VATICAN CITY -- Pope Benedict XVI has called a meeting Thursday with top Vatican officials to discuss lifting the celibacy requirement for priests seeking to marry or who have already married.

Benedict called the summit to examine the implications of the "disobedience" of Archbishop Emmanuel Milingo, the Zambian prelate excommunicated in September for installing four married American men as bishops.

The Vatican stressed the meeting would not open a general discussion of the celibacy requirement but would only examine requests for dispensation made by priests wishing to marry and requests for readmission made by clergy who had married in recent years.

I guess that shortage of new priests is getting pretty serious.

It would be better without Republicans too, but I'm afraid we're stuck with them.

I thought this thread was about the Christer Cult--you know, the REAL cult, out in Colorado Springs with Pastor Ted and the meth in the ass war on queers? The Catholic Church is a RACKET, based on a religion, let's get it straight. The evangelicals are a Cult, stem to stern.

Sure, babs, you wish YOU had a "D" behind you...I mean..who are YOU to be calling out anyone, let alone the rotweillor of the Vatican, as a Nazi. Continue waiting for Adolf--er, I mean Augustus.

You can even become an "Elder Statesman" of the Democratic party.

I didn't see Republicans trying to overturn the seniority system while they were in power. So sit back and have a nice cup of STFU.
