[quote=Anonymous]The Catholic Church is just finding out what other denominations have learned: men won't work for those salaries. The Catholic model of the celibate priest worked when there were people for whom that was a good opportunity. College educated people now have many other options, so in the 80's, US priests came from Ireland, which had high unemployment, and today they come from Africa. Many parishes in the US share priests and much of the day to day work is done by female lay ministers and deacons (essentially married priests). The hierarchy can wail, but if the labor supply isn't there, they will have to give more duties to women. Market forces. The Church of England is going through the same thing with female priests.[/quote]
