"St. Peter, the rock upon whom the church was built, was married, but what do I know."

Apparently, only what's on the talking points that are currently popular in your circle of friends.

When priests weren't required to be celibate those who wanted to attack His Church were saying that the priest couldn't have his own wife and family to look after and be a good shepherd. Those blathering about how bad it was for priests to have wives also referred to what one of the Apostles had to say on the subject, but I guess that's not on the little checklist of verses to quote on this topic.
