@oboy_jay said: “That’s highly irregular and against Catholic Church doctrine, which mandates celibacy for priests. Your claim raises serious questions about your adherence to ecclesiastical vows.”

@AaJessehalliday wrote: “This priest has committed no crime and has not sinned against God Almighty.

People expect priests to be like Jesus Christ, but let me say this clearly: no one can ever truly be like Him. The Catholic Church needs to lift the ban on priests getting married. Many of them fall into repeated fornication because of this restriction. It’s time to face the truth and make necessary changes.”

@SitoEmmy said: “We know most romantic priests secretly have children, but coming public to say this, nah 🤦🏼‍♀️”
