9. They should just let priests marry

It would revive the Catholic Church. The church is out of touch with its followers.

After I divorced my first husband who abused me, I went to my priest and told him what happened. He said I must beg my ex husband forgiveness and go back to him because I could not be a catholic and divorced. Stopped going to church and am a catholic in name only. When I remarried I had a non religious wedding. I’ll be going on 30 years in 2019 with my current husband.
