How does promising a degenerate person a pass from a traditional relationship and family not attract degenerates from flocking and abusing just be they can and get away with it?
Obviously, it doesn't. The primary reason for ordained celibacy is to follow the example of Jesus, as I understand it. But it isn't a doctrine of the Church, merely a norm. It's actually something that can be changed.

I thought you were saying that celibacy isn't at all a factor in attracting certain people. Sorry about that.
