they can marry there? woah! don't know about bishops
there but here they definitely aren't allowed to marry! because the
whole point is that their life is meant to be dedicated to God and God
only. Thats why there is no room for a wife and children.π
maybe US system is different, here, whats the point, ur not commiting urself to God because ur time is being shared with others.π
I am not talking about Bishops. I am talking about preachers and
fathers in the church. In India too we have many family friends who are
fathers of Church and married with kids.
Nowhere in the Bible it is written that to serve god one should
remain unmarried though in some Christian churches, fathers don't
marry.
I think you have got whole point of how to serve god wrong. π
My knowledge on this is limited so it would be nice if a Christian
throws light on it. What I have mentioned here is courtesy lots of
Christian family friends. I have American neighbors who even call
Jesus, gay (ofcourse jokingly) and still go to Church regularly.
