I keep hearing about “being taken care of when you’re old”. Is that really the best argument? A man must endure savage decades of modern American wifery, a divorce risk FAR exceeding the casualty rate on Omaha beach, to maybe get some sort of nursing service eventually?

Please tell me there is more.

Sadly, there is not. I begin to understand why Paul seemed to favor celibacy over marriage. Marriage was just seen as a better alternative than succumbing to temptation.

Well there is a big difference between the married men at church (who are clean, well fed, and running things), vs the unmarried forty-year-olds.
