"And in any case, the fact that he was unmarried when he wrote his letters shows that your idea, “Celibacy is unnatural” makes no sense unless you think St. Paul was unnatural - and Jesus too."

(1)Show me where I said it is my idea that celibacy is unnatural. The only thing unnatural is for any Church to claim authority to order it for the priesthood.
(2)Paul was a member of the Sanhedrin and it was a requirement for them so at some point he was married.
(3)Paul was natural, Jesus had a mission that made marriage impossible.

“1)Show me where I said it is my idea that celibacy is unnatural.”

Oh, it was someone else’s post to you. I apologize.

“Paul was natural, Jesus had a mission that made marriage impossible.”

Not impossible, just unfair to the bride.
