Celibacy is a rare and admirable gift for the few that are granted it.

As is Holy Orders.

And I believe the requirement for Protestants ministers is graduation from seminary - at most.

Depends entirely on the church. There is zero seminary requirement in most churches wrt to pastors. You could literally walk in with a recommendation and start preaching from the pulpit the next day.
