Do you not think that opening up the clergy to marriage would give people the choice? Often the calling to the priesthood is there but so is the calling to have children.
I am not convinced by the argument for women priests, at present, but celibacy should not be the limiting factor for the priesthood. We are losing out on too many good married laypeople and too many priests who would make excellent fathers.
There also seems to be some confusion about the proper liturgical season. And as far as I remember, tie-dye turquoise doesn't feature anywhere in the Church's rubric.
If women's ordination and married clergy were the solution, England would have been converted.
