Eastern and Western Christian churches have different traditions concerning clerical celibacy. These differences and the resulting controversies have played a role in the relationship between the two groups in some Western countries.
Most Eastern Churches distinguish between "monastic" and "non-monastic" clergy. Monastics do not necessarily live as monks or in monasteries, but have spent at least part of their period of training in such a context. Their monastic vows include a vow of celibate chastity.
Bishops are normally selected from the monastic clergy, and in most Eastern Churches a large percentage of priests and deacons also are celibate, while a portion of the clergy (typically, parish priests) may be married. If a future priest or deacon is to be married, his marriage must take place before ordination to the diaconate. While in some countries the marriage continues usually to be arranged by the families, cultural changes sometimes make it difficult for such seminarians to find women prepared to be the wife of a priest, necessitating a hiatus in the seminarians' studies.
In countries where Eastern traditions prevail among Christians, a married clergy caused little controversy; but it aroused opposition in other countries to which Eastern Catholics immigrated. In response to requests from the Latin bishops of those countries, the Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith set out rules in a letter of 2 May 1890 to François-Marie-Benjamin Richard, the Archbishop of Paris,[44] which the Congregation applied on 1 May 1897 to the United States,[45] stating that only celibates or widowed priests coming without their children should be permitted in the United States. This rule was restated with special reference to Catholics of Ruthenian Rite by the 1 March 1929 decree Cum data fuerit, which was renewed for a further ten years in 1939. Dissatisfaction by many Ruthenian Catholics in the United States gave rise to the American Carpatho-Russian Orthodox Diocese. This rule was abolished with the promulgation of the Decree on the Catholic churches of the Eastern Rite; since then, married men have been ordained to the priesthood in the United States, and numerous married priests have come from eastern countries to serve parishes in the Americas.[46]
Some Eastern Catholic Churches have decided to adopt mandatory clerical celibacy, as in the Latin Church. They include the Syro-Malankara Catholic Church and the Ethiopic Catholic Church.
Pablo es muy muy claro:
1 Corintios 7, 7-8, 32-35
7 Mi deseo sería que todos los hombres fueran como yo; mas cada
cual tiene de Dios su gracia particular: unos de una manera, otros de otra.
8 No obstante, digo a los célibes y a las viudas: Bien les está quedarse
como yo.
32 Yo os quisiera libres de preocupaciones. El no casado se preocupa
de las cosas del Señor, de cómo agradar al Señor.
33 El casado se preocupa de las cosas del mundo, de cómo agradar a
su mujer;
34 está por tanto dividido. La mujer no casada, lo mismo que la
doncella, se preocupa de las cosas del Señor, de ser santa en el cuerpo y en
el espíritu. Mas la casada se preocupa de las cosas del mundo, de cómo
agradar a su marido.
35 Os digo esto para vuestro provecho, no para tenderos un lazo, sino
para moveros a lo más digno y al trato asiduo con el Señor, sin división.
