...I find it interesting that God is working to end this celibacy thing...

Not God, No, not God at all. Try something lower and cast out.

Everyone who replied so angrily to me forget the scriptures that point to married pastors:

1 Timothy 3:2, Titus 1:6

Peter himself was married. LOL, and wasn't he the first "pope"? ;)

Lastly, the scriptures say that those who FORCE celibacy (not choose, force), are teaching doctrines of DEMONS: 1 Timothy 4:3

Just because Paul preferred to be unmarried, doesn't mean that God doesn't EQUALLY use the married. Otherwise, wouldn't Paul have rejected the married pastor? He quoted the married pastor TWO TIMES.

And Jesus being unmarried is for an entirely different reason that we would be. So that example is stupid. You may as well say, hey, Jesus was sinless, why aren't you?
