1- Why the Priests don't have the right to get married.

and does this good for them, and what about the problems caused by that.

 

 

2- Do the Mothers in the churchs (lay sister), have the right to get married marry, or are like the Priests.

 

 

3- I heard that some Chrsitans have the right to marry more than one wafe, and I saw that in USA.

First of all.. If you wanna find out any information about Christianity, you can easily use internet.. why to ask believers?

 

2nd.. Hope you know that Christianity is divided into: Orthodoxy, Catholicism and Protestantism.. and each of these groups has its own "differences" comparing another ones.. their main belief is "belief in God Jesus", but there are many other things which make these groups being different from each other..

so, if you wanna ask those questions you mentioned referring "christians", then ask orthodox christians, catholics and protestants separately..


3d.. I do live in Russia, and most people here are orthodox christians.. but let me tell you 1 thing.. we are not so "crazy" about religion like some countries can be.. we do believe in God.. but comparing others we keep our God inside us and have our own "connection" with Him.. we don't need to pray 10 times per day, we don't need to keep up the strict rules which religion can dictate.. we always feel our God close to us.. we "call" Him when we need that, we thank Him when we feel that.. no need to visit church at exact days.. when we feel like we need to go, we go.. no one here is forced to lead religious way of life.. everything depends on person one'self.. if you want to honour religious holidays, up to you.. if you don't, then so what? God won't "leave" you or "dissapear" for ages if you don't do this..

 

that's why my dear friend, if you need to know answers on the questions you asked, you better find them by urself.. cause here can be only 2 options of getting the answers from "christians": 1) they will find them in the internet and just retell you.. or 2) some religionist will find his way here =) or maybe some monk, which is almost impossible.. ))

 

good luck))

Hi Hamid!
Good questions and nice pictures, too! I’m happy to see that there’s someone out there who seeks answers about issues about belief that not only refer to his own belief.
Because I had been a Roman Catholic Christian for some time I’ll try to give you an appropriate answer.
Actually I wanted you to have a look at the English wikisite about “celibacy”: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celibacy.
But I think this site is very imprecise and insufficient. So I’m going to try a translation and summarization of the more precise German wikisite: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z%C3%B6libat
That will take me for a while but I’ll give my best if you have patience with me.
Nice regards!

Thank you Novita

talking and changing ideas is helpful between the nations

and that make each other understand the other

with respect, and you're an example for that

 

althought I didn't understand everything about those, because it's so dificult, and change from christian par to another.

But, I want to know the opinion of Christians, As I trying to make them understand what we believe.

The good ward is a CHARITY.

Looking for the truth, is the right way.

1st.. it wasn't an "attack".. it was just my reply according the topic..

 

2nd.. should i be like someone else? i do have my own opinion and words to say.. and the way i can say that.. 

 

3d.. the question he asked is "incorrect" from its inception.. if he wants to know abt priest's way of life, he shouldn't ask believers.. cause believers are not educated in that.. and moreover we don't need to know that to be a christian.. i already said – everything he needs, he can easily find in the internet.. and if he wants to know that directly from christians, they will do the same.. they can only search in the internet and retell it.. like Novita already did.. she sent a link..

This whole stuff of rites and customs in Christian Church is also very confusing for me because there are a lot of different confessions and sects. But I’m going to learn more and more about this issue by researches and making translations. I have already started doing this by making translations to answer you questions! ;-)

I’ve send an English wikilink but that link is insufficient. Even wiki invites to improve the article.
The only site I can recommend is in German. But almost nobody here is able to understand German. By the way I myself am an absolutly non-believer. But regardless I know enough intelligent and tolerant Christian priests, believers and friends that are able to answer these questions in a correct manner. In addition I think that you can learn better about issues by real and personal exchange than by just absorbing every internet information regardless if that information is valuable or not.

girl, i don't mind your help)) i only said my opinion..

if somebody here is able to answer his questions in a good and right way, then please welcome)) if you are really interested in helping him, then why not..

 

i just got used to find necessary information with "my own hands".. and believe me, if human really wants to know smth, and is eager to find it, then for sure he/she'll get success.. im not saying that wikipedia is only one possible source where you can find the answers.. internet has much information.. you just should give urself an effort in getting what you need..
