I'm pretty sure the whole catholic molestation thing is because the church has been infiltrated by communists fags who are out to destroy anyone who believes in Jesus especially the catholics
I see it differently. The protestant movement lead by Martin Luther, was a protest against the Roman Catholic church. The reformation was foremost theological, but the growing corruption in the Vatican and cultural differences were also main reasons.
The protestant priests lead normal lives with spouse and children. This is probably over simplification, but the lives of catholic priests over centuries, bunched up in their churches, with only access to altar boys, has got to corrupt their minds.
The celibacy thing was Introduced because of the corruption in families with vast riches from the church coffers taken by pretests, bishops etc and passed down to their sons. All because the rich prelates at the top did not want to give up their own wealth... I'm Catholic but I fervently disagree with the celibacy solution
I am also Catholic, have been to many protestant churches and agree that having families as pastors is a good thing. I struggle going to church because while I believe in Jesus and the Bible, I don't have much faith in churches overall.
Us as well, which is going to become a thing as we've not kept up with registration and the young uns may have trouble later without Ze Paperwork... Looking at Old Catholic, who apparently perform sacraments that are accepted by Roman Catholic, but allow married priests, and Greek Orthodox, who are very much dedicated to the Virgin Mary.
We've had issues as well, been continuing to go to virtual masses but only Catholic, Greek Orthodox. Our 'membership' lapsed yet we don't want our kids to have paperwork issues when they're ready for confirmation, marriage... Looking around now for options, painfully aware that they want you to be tracked at one location (through weekly donations in person of course) for a couple of years for them to do anything with you, while freaking Madonna bought herself a cathedral wedding and Biden and pelosi still haven't been excommunicated... Ugh.
