No, it’s questioning whether the Catholic church allows priests to marry, which has already been addresses.

MD has made it clear just in recent posts that under certain extenuating circumstances that married priests have been permitted but that it is not the norm and that they are not permitted to marry or remarry once they are priests.

The RCC’s policy is for a celibate priesthood, which is pretty generally known.

I don't recall saying that and I don't recall even addressing the issue. I went through my posting history looking for that comment and can't find it.

You did indeed "address the issue" in 4757 with your question. I have no objection if you wish to deny what you did.
