Paul Iby

Paul Iby (Hungarian: Iby Pál, born on 23 January 1935 in Doborján (German: Raiding)) is Bishop Emeritus of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Eisenstadt, Austria.

Bishop Iby is convinced the Catholic church should drop its celibacy requirement for priests.

"It should be at the discretion of every priest whether to live in voluntary celibacy or in a family," Die Presse quoted Iby as saying.

Bishop Iby also said that eventually the ordination of women should be considered.
