So, uh, how come for "most human history," lots of people, maybe even most people, still got married? Marriage, and young marriage, was actually the norm for a long time in human history. I guess people were as deluded back then as they are now, for wasting their time with marriage?

Impossible. Jesus didn't die so we could sniff glue. Therefore, Lovette will never try to sniff glue. Of course, neither will I, for different reasons. :LOL:

What?

"Capacity"? So it's not inevitable?

Well, I don't know if every young person is ready for a relationship. Twelve seems too young for anything serious, I didn't have my first crush until I was fifteen, and it took me a few months to realize it wasn't that serious and that it wasn't the big deal I made it out to be in my head, haha...

I haven't figured that out yet, either. :ROFL:

According to Lovette, no, because Jesus didn't die in order for you to enjoy the sight of a rainbow. :LOL:

Someone can desire marriage and desire to be spiritually minded. Crazy, I know! Also, you know where in the Bible the desire for marriage is called "carnal"? Nowhere.

Because some people have that desire. Of course, if you don't have that desire, well, don't worry, you don't have to bother with marriage. That's fine.

:ROFL:

Also, concerning "contentment": single Christians are often told that the Good Christian Thing To Do is to be "content" with their singleness. The Bible doesn't actually say that, though. In 1 Corinthians 7, Paul actually says that if you're not content with singleness, then maybe you should get...

I'm kinda new to this community, but some people on here have told me that Lovette's been around this community for a while and has admitted that he just enjoys debating online. So maybe that's part of it, too. :LOL: Admittedly, I can get sucked into this, too. Still. In Romans 14:1, Paul...

The answers are no, and no. :ROFL:

The way I understand it, according to you, the "natural way God intends us to live" means that everyone should stay single. Does the Bible command everyone to stay single? No.

Um, new people are born every day, and new people grow up and mature every day to the point that they enter the life stage where they begin to desire a romantic partner and hit the usual 18+age limits that we usually see on dating apps. Did you think of that? :LOL:

Using dating apps is fine. A dating app is just a tool to find people and then potentially date them, which may potentially lead to a relationship, which may potentially lead to marriage. And the Bible doesn't even really tell us how to go about looking for a partner. Also, a lot of people think...

There's another one of these threads here? Maybe on this one I can finally get through to Lovette! Don't worry, I'm joking. 😂

Oh, it depends. OK.

And......that makes marriage evil? Do I understand that right?

OK. And?
