I am not totally in disagreement with what you said, but I have seen so much crap about the pope this last week that I don't even want to start on that topic. :P Glad you got it off your chest though.

If lay people are forced to procreate (rape, incest) way can't priests enjoy the same necessary function?-Because no one wants to pay death benefits to the Priest's family. The church was losing alot of money to wives before the rule was put down that no priests could marry.
