The whole celibacy thing among Catholic officialdom has always reinforced to me (and views I heard growing up from my family around me) that Catholicism is built on weird cult like rituals that take precedence over any relationship with, or worship of God and Jesus Christ that they purport to be about. No wonder the official ranks of Catholicism attracts social misfits (and by association, deviants).
Like I said earlier. My family background was Protestant (Methodist/Presbyterian). I wouldn't say my extended family is overly practicing these days, but I was Christened and I was sent to Sunday school for a couple of years as a child. And all the Ministers I remember (both male and female Ministers) were generally married with children. In fact, although not an overt rule, it seemed that this was nearly an expectation. As if being a committed family man/woman was setting an example of what a good Christian person does. Like I suggest, I'm not practicing (more agnostic than anything else), but I would have thought that this school of thought is more compatible with the purported teachings than Catholic practice. And more importantly, it made the Ministers (and by extension, their family) seem more like regular, 'real' people, than some sort of divine being.
And I think this is where the Catholic Church with all it's bizarre rituals has fostered their corrupt culture. If you put people up on a pedestal as some sort of divine being, you create an aura of unquestionability and untouchability about them. Not only from the followers, but that kind of power goes to the anointed one's heads and they begin to believe that they themselves are unquestionable and untouchable - above the laws of decency (and real laws) that mere mortals must adhere to.
