I think people are pretty spot on about the married to god excuse the church gives, but from the point of a non-beleiver who understands the laws where just made up by the church heirachy, it comes down to money and property protection.

Much Like the priests, if the nuns don't get married or have children there are claims on assets or money given by the church to the nun/priest and no obligation to look after dependents in the event of death.

my question is , is there a law from the bible about asking the women and priests to don't married if they decide to serving the church ?

and if a nun decide to marry and serving a church in the same time , she could ?
and if a nun and preist get loved each other , they could married and serving the church in the same time ?
