practicing communal living and observing celibacy( 獨身制)，mover and shakers

歐洲動態

榮休教宗本篤十六世罕有在退任後就教會事務發表意見，對於放寬神父不得結婚的禁令持保留態度，認為不婚可讓神父專注神職工作。

教廷正考慮是否改變禁止神父結婚的規定。另外，本篤十六世插手教廷事務，且明顯與現任教宗方濟各有不同意見，令人側目。

The surprise appeal comes as Pope Francis considers an easing of the rule banning married priests.

celibacy[cel・i・ba・cy]

• 発音記号[séləbəsi]

[名][U]

1 独身（生活）.

2 （聖職者の）独身（主義）；禁欲（生活）, 貞潔, 肉体的純潔.

celibacy ：獨身（生活）；獨身制；貞潔：指西方教會中聖職人員的獨身。天主教聖職人員的獨身，系追隨聖保祿的勸諭（參閱格前七 8 ）；司鐸為了天國和服務人群之故，全心投入福傳工作而放棄自己的自由，以體驗在基督內的新自由。六世紀末教宗大國瑞（ Gregory the Great 540-605 ）始規定西方（拉丁）禮高級聖職人員（五品、六品、司鐸、主教、教宗）應獨身。故獨身制為教會法，並非絕對不可改變者。天主教東方禮（ Eastern Rite ）准許司鐸結婚，但必須在領執事品以前。今五品已取消，西方禮的終身執事（六品）不必獨身，唯司鐸以上仍需獨身；但偶有例外，譬如有些基督教牧師改宗天主教後，經教宗特許，晉鐸後可攜眷擔任聖職。
