It is especially prominent in the Latin rite. There are other rites in the Roman Catholic Church and some of them have married priests. When priests convert to Catholicism they are usually allowed to remain priests if they wish. They often have to be actually ordained. If they were married and ordained both stick. Neither is reversible. If they are married and &amp;quot;ordained&amp;quot; they can still be ordained.</text><parent_chain><item><author>walrus01</author><text>Serious question, but isn&amp;#x27;t anything that is a &amp;quot;married priest&amp;quot; not actual catholicism, as it would be recognized and approved by church HQ in Rome?&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m confused because it does seem somehow officially okay.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Personal_Ordinariate_of_the_Chair_of_Saint_Peter?wprov=sfla1&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Personal_Ordinariate_of_the_Ch...&lt;/a&gt;</text></item><item><author>User23</author><text>With full respect for your freedom of conscience, should you ever wish to discern whether to become Catholic the Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter[1] makes retaining many if not the majority of your Anglo-Catholic traditions possible.
