There is NOTHING in the Bible which requires priests to be celibate.

You've said the exact same thing about the Blessed Mother's Perpetual Virginity: "it's not in the Bible".

Why even bother claiming to be a Catholic?

The Bible specifically permits married clergy.

Why would the Church prohibit such a basic human right?
