So according to your interpretation of these passages, noone who wants to be spiritual should get married.

And yet we are told by the same person you quoted, Paul, that all those who aspire to be "overseers" [episkopos, read "bishop" in some translations; "elders" in others] in the church should be the "husband of one wife" {lit., a "one woman man"], and should rule their own household well, else how can they manage the household of God. 1 Timothy 3:1-6

Is there a contradiction here? Paul didn't mandate the celibate life, he merely said to those who were so at that time to remain so in order to engage in the Lord's work.

If the monastic life is a model for the secular person, what do you do with the mandate given to Adam and Eve to be fruitful and multiply and fill the Earth?

Basically, I believe your model doesn't hold water, and doesn't line up with the Scriptures.

I said "the scripture advises us all to consider". I did not offer any such interpetation.
