You're not getting the hint: it's not worth it. Your church probably doesn't want you to know about Matthew 19 and 1 Corinthians 7. They rarely discuss anything but Old Testament laws and the pastoral epistles, because the rest isn't useful for politics. Everything seems to be about this world and this life, and all they do is fight and condemn. It seems Christendom is being led by infants who are still wordly. I can see their influence on you in your attitude. Their conflicting messages confuse you, and each one claims that not obeying their ideas offends God. Almost any time someone talks about "offending God", what they really mean is you're offending them, and they assume that since they're offended, and they're always right, God must be too. But if you don't know, how can there be anything against you? They have tranformed God into a ruthless emperor, in hope of sharing in his corrupt reign, just like the Jews hoped their messiah would take over the world for them and persecute their enemies. But learn that "I came to serve, not to be served". And do you think every bad thing is God's wrath? That's another lie coming from every pulpit these days, just as Job's friends insisted that his struggles were a punishment for wrongdoing. All spiritual growth is prohibited in today's churches. If they were the real thing, why are they so popular? And why are they so lightly persecuted? It's all a trap, and unsuspecting social animals fall right into it. If you can't eradicate something, destroy it from within. The church fathers have been at this for millenia. I can show you plenty that they don't want you to see, and I believe I've barely scratched the surface.

I can't emphasize enough, it is not wrong to not marry. You are encouraged not to. Anyone who says otherwise is more concerned about passing down genes than anything that comes after, or even now if they hadn't shut it out. It's especially bad now that the church's political enemies have somehow managed to associate being alone with themselves, and since Christendom is little more than reactionary culture wars at this point that matters to them more than what their own religion says. There's also the problem of natural selection wiping out non-reproductive people, along with any good that manages to come into hell. But the narrow path is still there for you.
