It is surely time the Church examined the wisdom and practicability of celibacy.
It would appear that such excessive professions of worldly sacrifice only leads to hypocrisy, repression, suppression and then, eventually, exposure and disgrace.

THE VOICE OF REASON Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.
