Initium sapientiae timor Domini.
What I don't understand is why the modern permanent married diaconate is not celibate. Never before in Church history has a married deacon not been bound to continence and, if widowed, able to contract a second marriage.
Dr. Ed Peters has written about the seeming inconsistency between the letter of canon law and present practice.
