He was not forced into celibacy. He chose it. No one forces you to be an RC priest.

So what else are you going to do after 8 years of school, only to realize you can not be celibate??? Throw away the 8 years of your life or try to live a secret life and continue on with the religion???

Repent?

Seriously, suppose you went to medical school and then discovered your hands shake too much to pursue your specialty. Or you go to law school and discover you freak out in the courtroom. Or you get teaching degree and discover you can’t control a classroom full of children.

You realize you can’t cut it and maybe do something in a similar line or whatever, but not the same thing. What a silly question.

The RC church doesn’t “owe” a man a priesthood!
