How many popes were not celibate?
A:As popes have for many centuries been required to be celibate, many sexually active popes would not have made their sexual status known, so we could never say with any certainty how many popes were celibate. It is generally only because of the existence of illegitimate children or complaints of rape, that it was proven that a pope was not celibate. Popes who were relatively elderly at the time of their election would probably have been celibate, but in some other cases popes would have been celibate by moral choice. In modern times it is considered that almost all popes have been celibate in office.
