Really?? Spiritual men and women have lived this way for centuries.
True, there is a very good argument for the ascetic life contributing towards spirituality, and celibacy is a part of that.
With Catholic priests they are expected to go out into the world, minister to their flock, etc, and as such be exposed to worldly temptations so celibacy in my view should be optional for them, but I am inclined to think it is not necessarily wrong to promote celibacy as an ideal, but not for everyone.
