The current business model is truly unsustainable and the shambles that is the American church became even more starkly clear to me today.  My mom is feeling very poorly and asked for a sick call.  I called her local parish and tried to speak to two of the resident priests.  I say "tried" to speak, because while I did get through, the priest I spoke with could not string together a coherent English sentence.  Both are from overseas.  So one came over to administer the blessed sacrament, but as for any comforting confabulation to be offered to a bed ridden 90 year old in a time of trial, that was sadly beyond him.  Whether or not opening up the priesthood to home grown married men will increase the available supply cannot be known until it is at least tried.
