Why Priests Should Wed (1888)

By Justin Dewey Fulton

Book Overview

""Why Priests Should Wed"" is a book written by Justin Dewey Fulton and published in 1888. The book argues that priests should be allowed to marry and have families, rather than being celibate. The author presents various arguments in support of this position, including the idea that marriage is a natural and necessary part of human life, and that it can actually enhance a priest's ability to minister to his congregation. Fulton also addresses common objections to the idea of married priests, such as concerns about financial support and the potential for conflicts of interest. Overall, ""Why Priests Should Wed"" is a thought-provoking exploration of a controversial topic that continues to be debated within the Catholic Church and other religious institutions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
