Ackshually the Bible doesn't require celibacy. The Pope even suggested that married priests might be allowed in the future.
True. I believe the celibacy thing is to prevent bishops from accruing wealth and leaving it to their sons. The church wanted the money. Similar to how Henry the 8th created the Anglican Church to get a divorce, plus all the church properties and tithes.
As usual, religious conflicts are based on earthly concerns.
They can be married now just gotta use the ‘ol Episcopal -> Catholic loophole
