There's something that makes no sense at all about priests and stuff. So the guys that become priests can't have sex right? This is totally stupid since the Bible says to reproduce with all those fancy words. In other words God is telling people to have sex because he wants the earth to be populated. It never says that priests can't have sex. The church looks at sex as a dirty act, when even the bible says it's something holy. Sex isn't evil, it's something natural and completely normal. Priests should have sex instead of playing hide and seek with little children.

You brought up a good point about catholic priests and diddling with children thats one reason I dislike the Roman Catholic religion. The church of England is catholic but what a difference in the two religions.

Yes I must say that USA priest have some bad eggs and they are being cleared out.   I dislike that that would hurt an child, but you must see pass the sin of a person.   To be a priest you must have love for Christ and Her church not cuz you want to be free.  It's not about that.

The Catholic church isn't the only church that has ministers that "diddle with children." The only reason why it seems like it's such a big deal is because the Catholic church holds high standards for it's priests.

OP: There are different orders of priesthood and depending on which sect the priest is in, depends on what kind of rules there are. Some have made vows of poverty, which means that all of their earnings (if any) goes straight back to the church and they only have things that they absolutely need to live.

Celibacy is a rather extreme view, as no one can really disagree with that. In order to practice celibacy, you would have to be a rather controlled individual. And a very focused one as well. The bible does not necessary demand for everyone to be married and to have sex in order to have kids.
