Priests and marriage

This is an intersting topic as their are some priests in the catholic church that are married ,IE...If a married protestant minister converts to catholicism.

It is the priests informed decision to accept a vow of celibacy,however it is true that the number of men entering the priesthood within our own diocese and worldwide is diminishing.There are any number of reasons that men are not seeking vocations within the church,but I do not believe it is entirely due to desire to marry.
