This article speaks about the vow of chastity, which here means a vow of celibacy

Recent sad events have shown how far all the theory and beautiful words about chastity/celibacy are from the the reality in modern life

Honesty requires a total reassessment of this whole issue

Jesus, please give Church leaders the humility and courage and wisdom
to check their bearings on the issue of chastity/celibacy
