What is a secular priest?

A secular priest is a priest who does not live according to a rule of a religious order, society, or congregation of priests. He is a priest who does not take the vows of chastity, poverty and obedience of the members of a religious order, but instead promises obedience to a diocesan bishop and to live a celibate life. Most parishes are administered by a secular priest and parish work is his main canonical mission. Today, a secular priest is often called a diocesan or archdiocesan priest. Secular priest is differentiated from regular priest (regular priest meaning a priest living according to a rule, regula in Latin, like the Franciscans, Dominicans, and Jesuits), better known today as religious order priest. Today, there is not much difference in the academic training of a secular priest and a regular priest because they often study in the same college and graduate theology schools/universities though they may differ in the mission, vision, and spiritual formations since a regular priest has additional training unique to the order, congregation, or society he belongs to.
