Weird post and attempt to get personal and to indicate uncalled for hostility, but I don't think the concern is that celibacy creates homosexuals or a sexual desire for children, but that an all male institution sworn to no women or any sexual or romantic contact with women for one's entire lifetime, might attract men who really like that idea and atmosphere, and commitment to maleness.

It would be extremely dangerous if celibacy became a sort of pretext for bringing people into the priesthood who don't want to get married anyway," the pope said.

Here you go again. I don't know or have any interest in you personally.

Yup. Priests are people attracted to priesthood, firefighters are people attracted to firefighting, and generally, people choose vocations because they appeal to them.
