<<most religious people in the bible were married Noah,Moses,Abraham,Job >>

True. But Jesus was not. Neither was John the Baptist, or St. Paul.

<,so it doesn't matter if you are married or not it matters about your faith and your devotion to God>>

True, and the Catholic Church would agree with you. Jesus said, in Mattew 19:12 ---"Some are incapable of marriage because they were born so; some, because they were made so by others; some, because they have renounced marriage for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Whoever can accept this ought to accept it."

Priests are those who have renounced marriage for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. As Jesus tells us "Whoever can accept this ought to accept it."

Most of us are called to marriage. Marriage is a holy sacrament, instituted by God, to allow us to share in the familial love of the Trinity, and the participate in the gift of creation by bringing new life into the world.

Father Euteneuer, a Catholic priest, says that it is because marriage is good and holy, that giving it up as a sacrifice is acceptable. Celibacy actually confirms the goodness of marriage.

Father Euteneuer says this about celibacy:

Celibacy is a gift to the world, not a rule imposed by the Church on a few seemingly-abnormal men. Celibacy initiates men into a life of spiritual fatherhood in a strikingly positive way for others.

Celibacy is the personal renunciation of the legitimate goods of marriage and family as a fruitful sacrifice for the kingdom of God. The astonishment of this generation that a perfectly normal, red-blooded male could make that particular sacrifice is exactly the point of celibacy. The world needs to know that there are some men walking around who are not bound either by the expectations of society or by the terms of our fleshly human nature. They are bound by only one concern; that of a kingdom that is not of this world, and they are willing to sacrifice everything for it. The presence in society of men who make this sacrifice is profoundly challenging to a culture that wants to reduce everything in life to the pleasure principle

Misconception: Catholic Priests can’t get married

In order to clear this one up, we need to first understand the nature of the Catholic Church. Within the universal Church there are sections (also called churches but not in the sense that they are separate) – the most common one is, of course, the Roman (or Latin) Catholic Church. Then there is the Eastern Catholic Church (not to be confused with the Orthodox which is a different religion). Both of these churches fall under the jurisdiction of the Pope and all believe the same doctrines. There are a lot of differences between the two groups but these are all in matters of style of worship and certain rules. In the Eastern Church, priests are allowed to be married – but a married priest can’t become a Bishop.

It also happens that occasionally in the Latin Church, pastors who convert from other religions such as the Church of England are allowed to become priests even though they are married, so married priests can be found in all parts of the Roman Catholic Church. Pictured http://listverse.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/rodicia3-tm.jpg is a Greek Catholic priest and his wife. Don’t believe me? Here is proof. http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/influential_episcopal_priest_leaves_parish_to_convert_to_catholicism/
And here is more proof.

King James Version Bible


1 Peter Chapter 2

11. Dearly beloved, I beseech [you] as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;


1 Corinthians Chapter 7

1. Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: [IT IS] GOOD FOR A MAN NOT TO TOUCH A WOMAN.

2. Nevertheless, [to avoid] fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.


7. 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.


32. But I would have you without carefulness. HE THAT IS UNMARRIED careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:

33. But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please [his] wife.

34. There is difference [also] between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please [her] husband.

35. And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.


36. But IF ANY MAN THINK that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of [her] age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: LET THEM MARRY.

37. Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.

38. So then he that giveth [her] in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth [her] not in marriage doeth better.

8. I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.


9. But IF THEY CANNOT CONTAIN, let them marry: For it is better to marry than to burn.


Matthew Chapter 5

28. But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.


Luke Chapter 16

18. Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from [her] husband committeth adultery.



Galatians Chapter 5

19. Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these]; ADULTERY, FORNICATION, uncleanness, LASCIVIOUSNESS,

20. Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

21. Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told [you] in time past, that they which do such things SHALL NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD.


1 Corinthians Chapter 4

14. I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn [you].


James Chapter 1

12. Blessed [is] the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

13. Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:

14. But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

15. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

16. Do not err, my beloved brethren.


Ecclesiastes Chapter 12

13. Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this [is] the whole [duty] of man.


Matthew Chapter 22

37. Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

38. This is the first and great commandment.

39. And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.


1 Timothy Chapter 1

5. Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and [of] a good conscience, and [of] faith unfeigned:


Psalms Chapter 18

2. The LORD [is] my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, [and] my high tower.


1 Timothy Chapter 2

5. For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

6. Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.


John Chapter 10

23. And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch.

30. I and [my] Father are one.


John Chapter 14

15. If ye love me, keep my commandments.


Matthew Chapter 28

20. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, [even] unto the end of the world. Amen.

Then We caused Our messengers to follow in their footsteps; and We caused Jesus, son of Mary, to follow, and gave him the Gospel, and placed compassion and mercy in the hearts of those who followed him. But monasticism they invented - We ordained it not for them - only seeking Allah's pleasure, and they observed it not with right observance. So We give those of them who believe their reward, but many of them are evil-livers.

The apostle Paul SUGGESTED that a person could do more for
God if he was single...It was just a bit of advice...
Then the RCC took it up and turned it into a LAW...totally unsupported by scripture...

(1 Corinthians 7:8) Now I say to the unmarried persons and the widows, it is well for them that they remain even as I am.

God invented and created marriage with Adam and Eve the first...thats how he wants people to BE....
NOT be forced to be single...
And we now see the results...

Basically- no degree, although I have tried completing one in the past and stopped because of physical and mental health issues which were overwhelming to deal with along with going to classes full time. I'm not stupid and I am quite articulate. I am 23 and have only worked for about two years retail in high school and stopped working to go to university. I worked a few months in 2010 retail after I dropped out but it was only a seasonal position, and the only reason why I have not been able to constantly work is because of mental health issues. I had also tried going back to community college during my free time since i left university in 2008/9 and I had panic attacks while in community college, which made my anxiety worse from then on. Well recently I met a good doctor and he prescribed me some meds that are stabilizing my moods and I feel the best I've felt in years, and I'm ready to work. Thing is, I don't know how to get a job now since I've spent literally years being depressed and anxious doing nothing. I don't really have anything to put on my resume, and I never finished my AA degree either. All I've done is cashiering and although I do the job well and I get promoted easily when I do these jobs because I'm a hard worker and I try to go above and beyond what they ask of me,which is the attitude I have no matter what kind of work I'm doing as long as I'm getting paid. But I hate cashiering because it's too easy and I want a job that is more interesting. Any suggestions for me on how to get a job that is NOT Retail with the type of background I have right now? I also realize I have to go to college to get certain types of jobs, I am talking about what I can do right here right now.

So I have a nice white button up shirt, business skirt and pants, and a suit jacket. I'm applying for a software development job and I'm very short and can look young so I'm trying to look adult, yet professional. I'm also attractive so I'm trying not to look too sexy. For the career fair I'm thinking of wearing just my nice shirt and a skirt with low heels. My reasoning being it's approachable and attractive without going overboard since the career fair hosts are mostly younger male recent grads. I want to be remembered but not intimidating. For my interviews I was thinking pants, suit jacket (power suit). My reasoning being it'll be older execs and HR people (mostly women) so less sexy with the pants but more powerful with the suit jacket. What do you think?!
