cv5 and others are doing a great job debating you, so I'm just going to flatly state my position.
I'm a Pentecostal minister, I have read the Bible through multiple times, and the Bible does not say anywhere anything close to what you claim it is saying.
Personally I am exactly where I need to be right now. If I were married I would not be able to do what I am doing, and what I am doing is a service that is needed.
My current situation is temporary, as all life is temporary. It may change next month... or it may not change for ten years. But I'm remaining here until it does change. When it changes, I might need a wife or I might need to remain single. But that's God's call, not yours.
While the Bible doesn't say anything about a Christian duty to marry, it does say a LOT about being content where you are.
You can look down on single people if you want, but we're not buying your sanctimonious junk and your Bible verses ripped out of context and twisted to fit what you want to believe. Go peddle your guilt trip somewhere else.

I'ts proper to be content, but even that is misused to make singles feel guilty about wanting something better.
