How on earth do you know that priests will never be able to marry and that women will never be able to become priests? You don't. A lot of things have changed in this world over the past 2000 years and they will continue to change.
Take a step back. You're not the pope. I recognize your knowledge of the church but chill the heck out!

I agree. A relationship with God is a personal one. I don't need outside sources telling me HOW to be a Catholic and how I'm less of a Catholic then they are because I have slightly different beliefs. I know plenty of Catholics that don't agree with EVERY piece of the doctrine. And I learned from all of them.
And someone else mentioned on another thread that electing people other than unmarried men to priesthood ISN'T doctrine at all. It's policy. But since the Church is a slow mover, it will take some time. But to say it will NEVER happen is unlikely... perhaps not in your lifetime, but when the Church sees that the US is struggling with ordaining priests, they are gonna have to do something.
