Enforcing this unrealistic ideal is ruining lives and destroying the Church. Why not let these Priests (and Nuns) date, marry and have families like every other denomination?

Is celibacy so fundamentally important to Catholicism that it's worth all of this?

1. Celibacy requirement discourages normal, healthy, well-adjusted men from becoming priests

2. Ashamed homosexuals from conservative backgrounds become priests because they don’t want to be openly gay

3. Homosexuals are far more likely to molest children

I’m not a Catholic but the way I understand it is that priests are supposed to be closest to God. That can’t happen when your fucking your wife and selfishly guarding your children’s well-being against all other interests. Just because something is “natural” doesn’t mean it is good, quite the opposite. Of course this doesn’t translate to actual godliness because human nature is what it is, but the ideal remains. Without the ideal Christianity is meaningless.

The potential consequences are that if you don’t reform yourselves, we’ll reform you for you.

Let’s start with about 250 years of back taxes, plus interest.

catholic priests were only forbidden from marriage in the 1100s, 1000 years after christ. and the church only did this so that priests couldn't hand down inheritances to their offspring, so all wealth would stay in the church. it had nothing to do with the rationale in your post (not saying that rationale is bad or wrong)

there is a certain autistic purity appeal to the celibacy rule, but it's not necessary and it's pretty clear at this point that it has led to more negatives than positives. if the church got serious about banning fags, then maybe it would be a viable setup. hard to tell until it happens

what do you mean it's cynical? it's historical fact. they had legitimate reason to do so - the church was the most powerful institution back then, and there was a lot of nepotism and graft going on with clergy

the celibacy part came like 2 centuries later iirc and i don't remember the ostensible rationale for it

Honest question for Catholicmos: if a priest has molested or covered up for a molester or turned a blind eye to a molester, should he be defrocked? Now do you think the pope, cardinals, and other top officials would agree?

It was immediately clear when the abuse scandal erupted and there wasn't an immediate disgusted insistence from all top officials to root out and eliminate every priest with any involvement. There'd be nobody left.
