Does celibacy only mean not marrying? (Main Forum)
Does not celibacy just mean a commitment not to marry? If so, there are a lot of celibate people in modern society, but that does not exclude de facto relationships or serial sexual relationships. Wow...that could mean that a vow of celibacy is a licence to have multiple sexual relationships....
Don't the 10 commandments only exclude adultery? Where does the whole chastity bit, 'living in sin' come from? Isn't it only nuns who take vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, not priests?
