Not one time do I think that this is wrong. If God is here in this moment, he can’t fault me for what I’m about to do because it was my faith that prepared me for it. The unwavering ability to worship something so perfect and all-consuming. To give my very soul to power greater than me. Powerful enough to commit my life to. My mind screams that this is wrong, but my heart doesn’t know the difference between God and Cadence.
I don't personally understand the reasoning behind a vow of celibacy. I personally disagree, but that's me! he doesn't have to explain it to me! but the way it's rationalized in books is ridiculous. it's a wonder any priest stays celibate if this is all the rationale needed. these fictional priests always have a way of talking themselves into it, even somehow convincing themselves it's actually just what God would want. again, I don't personally agree with the vow of celibacy; if you wanna fuck, by all means, fuck, but please don't lie to yourself.
