They would certainly go back to married priests. They will never ordain women as priests.

There is nothing in the Bible which requires celibacy as a requirement for service in the priesthood. As a matter of fact, priests were married men in the Bible. Even the current Pope has stated that the celibacy requirement was instituted hundreds of year after the founding of the Church. The Pope has also said the policy is a discipline, not a dogma or a doctrine, and therefore subject to change.
