Although it is strictly enforced in some churches, there are still those who can not fulfill the requirement of their vocation. They are only human. If all can not practice it, then can we say that celibacy is a virtue?

I have also heard of people who have chosen celibacy but do not fulfill it. Yes, it is a virtue if you choose it and fulfill it. On the other hand, it is also a virtue if you choose to get married and fulfill it by remaining faithful to your partner.

That would be very interesting for marriages. With all the divorces happening, Moreover, celibacy can be applied to everyday life.

I can see its a virtue. There are temptations but they can be overcome

It is unnatural.. forcing oneself to be unnatural is not a virtue always.. we see the results of this today.. its there everywhere in the news.
