Chastity includes not molesting boys (or girls, or sheep). All Christians are required to practice the virtue of chastity, not just priests.

Celibacy is specifically the state of being unmarried.

I don't know...

Does being a protestant "minister" have a requirement of cheating on your wife (lost count of how many prots have done this)?

Does being a protestant "minister" require you to troll for gay prostitutes (Haggard)?

Does every thread on celibacy require a tired nonsequitur?
