Abishag:
I have always found that 'thought provoking' since we read in the Holy Scriptures where Paul states, "1 Corinthians 7:1b "It is good for a man not to touch a woman...' vs7).. 'For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that."

Jeanie: Most don't realize that Paul is referring to BEING ON MISSIONS...(And best to dedicate one's self fully to that mission). Marriage is ordained of God. It is NOT better to be celibate than in holy matrimony.
