It is very clear to see that this is a major part of the problem, and plus, God didn't even tell anyone to live a celibate life. God didn't tell them to do this.
This is a very difficult situation, like Drich said they believe it's sinful. Would it solve the problem, for some yes, for most IMO no, pedophiles are mentally devoid of right and wrong. Yes I believe they are pedophiles and should be punished as such, and it has happened so much that I believe some of these men may have had abusing boys on their minds when they became priest. The Catholic Church brought this on itself by telling the priest they could not be married, when scriptures do not teach this. hopefully the Catholic Church well allow married men to be priest so this awful evil will be limited, they should do it for the children's sake.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
