Celebacy was a poor evolutionary choice, although fortunately for the Catholic world, it wasn’t always practiced, well, religiously.
Think about it. From the beginnings of the Church, or at least from the 4th Century as noted above, the best and the brightest were taken out of the gene pool. Not smart. Judaism, on the other hand, encouraged its best and brightest to become rabbis and to “be fruitful and multiply”.
That is an interesting thought…never looked at it that way.
The celibacy for priests is simply stupid. Most in the church know it is. Until you get a reformist pope, that won’t change unfortunately.
