Default Does that mean that Pope Benedict XVI is a virgin at 80+?

Hello guys.. I have this question on my mind. Why don't catholic priests marry?.. Does that mean that Pope Benedict XVI is a virgin at 80?..I read the Bible all the time but I cannot find it anywhere in the Bible that says that Priests should not marry. In fact, the Bible says in Genesis that "Multiply and fill the earth". If the majority of us are to become priests then who will fill this earth? Remember that filling the earth is a task from God and that man must obey. I heard it from somewhere that the Pope is considering this issue. Should Catholic priests be allowed to marry in 2010? what do you think?

well in my opinion, marriage is something holy, and it should definitely take place. Catholic priest s do not get married, hence the child (sexual) abuse...its so unfortunate what people do in the name of God. If the priests are claiming to be religious, and religion encourages marriage, then they should be the first people to follow this path.
