The Use Of The Word "Father"

Matthew 23:9 And Call NO man your "father" upon the earth: for one is your "Father", which is in Heaven.

Matthew 23:10 Neither be ye call masters: for one is you Master, even Christ.


In the Catholic religion, people call their priests "father". Doesn't the above verses contradict what to call a "Priest"? What is your opinion on this matter?
