Some profess virginity or consecrated celibacy which enables them to give themselves to God alone with an undivided heart in a remarkable manner. Others live in the way prescribed for all by the moral law, whether they are married or single."135 Married people are called to live conjugal chastity; others practice chastity in continence: : There are three forms of the virtue of chastity: the first is that of spouses, the second that of widows, and the third that of virgins.
