The Catholic church is loosing members and donations big time. In the last two years they have closed down 4 different parrishes here in Worcester. Less and less men are joining the priesthood. The need to allow women to become priests for one. Judging by the number of times I've heard NO in my life time women should have no problems practicing celibacy.
Even more so that the sexual problem the catholic faith faces the fact that their God is a punishing God well people don't want to hear that shit. They want a loving God.....
