Maybe they need to re-write the rule of celibacy. As the article states Priests are men, they have temptation. Maybe JUST MAYBE if that rule was re-written, the rate of sexual abuse in the Catholic church would be lowered. Just because you have sex doesn't mean you are not Holy enough to teach God's words, it makes you more humble to Him.
LOL

Priests are not "HOLY!" There is no such thing as "Holy enough." They are human just like any of us.
