Pope Francis rules against, why married men on Amazon
The Pope urged the bishops to encourage missionaries in the Amazon region as a way of dealing with a shortage of priests
Pope Francis has decided against, and why married men in the Amazon region as a means to address the shortage of Catholic priests.
bishops supported the measure last year, but the decision of the Pope is required to be implemented in the permit.
the Catholic priests are obliged, to the rule of celibacy to the ordination, except in cases in which married Anglican clergy have converted.
celibacy, as the dedication of life to God.
the conservative wing of The Catholic Church , especially in Europe and North America - has spoken out against the idea of married priests, with the argument That this result could be That the worldwide abolition of the celibacy.
A statement from the Vatican said: "Amazon is asking us, the Pope writes, to overcome limited perspectives, and to not be satisfied with solutions for only a part of The Situation . "
The Pope said there was a need for Ministers who can understand the Amazon sensibilities and cultures from the inside. He exhorted the bishops to "foster prayer for priestly vocation" and encourage those who want to be missionaries to "opt for the Amazon region".
In October of last year, a Synod of 184 bishops met in the Vatican over The Future of The Church in the Amazon. It has been argued That older, married men may be priests.
But they had to be men, the particularly well-respected, and would preferably come from indigenous communities in which they want to work.
It is estimated That at least 85% of the villages in the Amazon are in the location of the fair to celebrate every week as a result of the lack of priests. Some to be said.
Bishop Robert flock of San Ignacio , a remote diocese in the Bolivian Amazon, told the BBC Newshour: "The Pope kicked easy The Can down The Road . He has not been consecrated once, the recommendation mentions the possibility of married deacons, as a priest, what was the, what was proposed by the Synod conclusions.
"The Catholic Church moves slowly in certain areas, and this is one of those, which could have caused terrible divisions in The Church ," he added.
Pope Francis had previously said he the way of the viri probati (men of proven faith) would perform some.
"We must have been thinking about whether viri probati are a possibility," he told the German newspaper of The time.
Also on Wednesday, the Pope announced That he had decided to allow women to service as a deacon, a lower rank as a priest.
Separately, he called for The Environment in the Amazon defended, due to its important role in the reduction of Global Warming .
"We are calling for an end to the abuse and the destruction of Mother Earth ," the Pope said.
focus on Climate Change rather than celibacyIt could be convenient That Pope Francis ' decision not to accede to The Request of Amazon bishops is a victory for his predecessor, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, and those traditionalists who consider him as their standard-bearer.
in the Last month a book, "From the depth of Our heart', written by cardinal Robert Sarah , the claims came out That Benedict had been, That the priest must be celibate.
But when Pope Francis was asked about the issue during a press conference on the flight back to Rome from Panama in January 2019, he was clear about his own preferences. "Personally," he said, "I believe That celibacy is A Gift to The Church . I would say That I do not agree, so That the optional celibacy, no. "
Pope Francis was also concerned That , if the celibacy is The Key feature for its response to the October Synod, it was also other urgent problems in the region will garner plenty of attention. So he writes in The First Chapter of his response, "the Amazon region is facing an ecological disaster," and so he decided not to focus on the internal affair of celibacy, but the external challenge of Climate Change .
Why there are rules on celibacy?The discussion about married priests is one of the longest debates in the history of the Catholic Church .
the Priestly celibacy was introduced about 900 years ago, and then, before the clergy were often married. St. Peter, The First Pope, was married.
Many see celibacy as an important part of being a Catholic priest, who is supposed to devote to The Church and not be distracted by what some consider to be the worldly Affairs, like a wife or A Family .
Other churches, including the Orthodox Church allowed The Church to marriage (although, in the case of the Orthodox community, the bishops are required to remain unmarried).
In addition, the former Anglican priest who left the Anglican Church community changed its laws to serve women as priests and bishops in the Catholic Church through the papal dispensation and ordained as a Roman Catholic priest, although some of them are married with children.
The Catholic Church , the rule is just That - a rule, which means That The Church is free to change That practice, if you believe That change is necessary.
