To be a priest is to be ordained to be another Christ. Our Blessed Lord ordained His apostles as the first priests and gave them authority to forgive sins, to offer the sacrifice of His Body and Blood (the Eucharist), and to lead His Church. Priests are chosen from among men to be servants, and to serve as Our Blessed Lord did during His Life here on earth. They are not trying to "be like God" they are required to act in His name and to do His Will, that is what their profession and vocation is.
