I don't mean to press the issue, but I was really hoping for an answer on this topic.

How many churches in our time (or anytime), call themselves "Christian" and have any doctrine of forbidding to marry? Who else could Paul be seeing in his vision?

If you don't mind, Paul was relating his vision of the last days. What churches in our time have any doctrines that require a person to not be married? I can only find one. Do you know of another?

Really? Which one? I can't think of any. I do know a young couple who were married in the Baptist Church, despite advising the minister they did not plan on having children. That would never happen in the Catholic Church. Refusal to have children is against the laws of God.
