Apparently, though, priests used to be allowed to marry and have families a while back. But with urbanisation and progress, people needed to feel closer to religion and thus the celibate came into being. Or something like that. It's been a few years since my professor had explained that on one of the many lectures where he went off on a tangent. I kinda miss that... Le sigh.
Anyways, says a lot about religion as an institution that...
And King James Bible! Still wanna get that one. Since I am fascinated with religion and that bible also is what helped form the "standard" English a great deal. XD
