Incorrect. The discipline of celibacy and the priesthood in the Church finds it's genesis with Melchisedech in the Old Testament and was practiced and taught by the Apostles. Suggest you study accurate history, as well as Matthew 19:27-30 and Luke 18:28-30 rather than simply regurgitating ignorant urban legends.
"ut quod apostoli docuerunt, et ipsa servavit antiquitas nos quoque custodiamus"
I HAVE studied Church history, of several flavors. I can back what I am saying up.
Now *I* am being friendly about this. Why aren't you?
