Question

question 2 (multiple choice worth 5 points) (01.05 mc) which of the following was a difference between christian priests in western europe and those in eastern europe by the 11th century? priests in the west had far less prestige and influence. priests in the west taught sacraments, but not those in the east. priests could marry in the east, and in the west, they were supposed to remain celibate. priests were appointed in the west and elected by congregations in the east.

Explanation:

By the 11th century, a key difference between Western and Eastern Christian priests was marital status: Western Catholic priests were required to be celibate, while Eastern Orthodox priests could marry before ordination (and married men could serve as priests). Western priests had significant prestige/influence, both regions taught sacraments, and appointment processes did not follow the pattern in the incorrect options.

Answer:

Priests could marry in the East, and in the West, they were supposed to remain celibate.
