The Apostles were married and had families. The idea of celibacy should be applied to priests who are not married. Priest should not fornicate. When they do marry, they should practice fidelity. Priests should stay married until "death do they part." By priests doing these things, they would serve as better role models for how we should live our lives as well as being "married" to the Church for all of our lives.

The Catholic Church is finding itself out of step with its true role in the community when it uses a model that may have served well in medieval times, but has no functional purpose in this global high tech age.
