Settling on a vocation for social reasons?

Young find higher calling

"Social reasons in part are bringing new generation to the clergy"


Fortunately, the experience I have with young Catholic seminarians is that the aspect of social concern is second to the spiritual nature of their feeling of being called to serve God. That bodes well for the Catholic Church - though I'm not trying to take anything away from the other young vocations, God bless them.
