Priests will be allowed to marry.
The second in command at The Vatican is preparing the ground by explaining that celibacy was never a rule from God but one invented by the Church
and perhaps - nowadays -it is not such a good rule?
And anyway the church already has all those married Anglicans priests who jumped the Anglican ship when it got choppy.
and
In Africa large numbers of priests who don't like being celibate just ignore the rule - as many others have done elsewhere over the years.
So - could the tide be about to turn - the waters to part - the unthinkable happen?
