I’ll point out that the Apostle Paul was celibate

Paul was a Pharisee, therefore he HAD TO BE MARRIED. You are not suggesting that he divorced his wife after his encounter in the road to Damascus, are you?

Aren’t you familiar with Paul’s words on the matter (his words, my emphases):

“Now to the UNMARRIED and to widows, I say: it is a good thing for them to REMAIN AS THEY ARE, AS I DO...” (1 Corinthians 7:8)
