Show Encouraging Celibacy. Dean Plgou writes In his recent book of anecdotes: "What stories bishops could toll of answers given by candidates for ordination! I havo this on good authority: A candidate was asked what there was In tho III-bio III-bio to encourage celibacy. Ills reply was: ' "Their priests were slain with tho sword nnd there were no widows to mako lamentation." Hut, my lord, It Is right to add that there Is another rendering: "Tho priests were slain with the sword and their widows mado no lamentation."" |
