A married priest might prevent sodomy…..which is already a problem with some priests.

I noticed at the end he says marriage or celibacy before ordination. I think the real pressure is few people want to be nuns and priests anymore because of that sacrifice. I can’t say marriage has helped Protestant churches avoid sexual scandals.

might=zero relation to that problem

Rampant same sex attraction is the issue.

Not the obligation of sexual continence.
