Why Priests Should Wed is a book written by Justin Dewey Fulton in 1888. The book argues that priests should be allowed to marry, and that the celibacy requirement for Catholic priests is a mistake. The author presents numerous arguments in favor of allowing priests to marry, including the fact that celibacy can lead to unhealthy behaviors and mental health issues. Fulton also argues that celibacy is not required by the Bible, and that the Catholic Church's requirement for celibacy is a man-made rule that can be changed. The book is a passionate defense of the idea that priests should be allowed to marry, and is an important historical document in the ongoing debate over celibacy in the Catholic Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
