Then why not allow married men in the Catholic Church apply for ordination as it is done in the Greek Catholic Church, the Ukrainian Catholic Church, Middle Eastern Catholic churches, and Orthodox churches?
Once again there is NOTHING absolutely NOTHING in the Bible requiring priests to be celibate. Not in the Old Testament, not in the Gospels. In point of fact, priests were married men in the Bible from Aaron on down.
Once again there is NOTHING absolutely NOTHING in the Bible requiring priests to be celibate.
So what? The Catholic Church does not obtain all of its practices from the Bible. Sola Scriptura is a Protestant idea. The Catholic Church relies on Scripture, Tradition and the Magisterium. Priestly celibacy has been a millennial tradition in the western Catholic Church and in its wisdom the Church has decided that priestly celibacy is a very good idea. This tradition began LONG before the Middle Ages.
Having married priests can create as many or more problems than you seem to think it will solve. Be careful what you pray for.
