The only excuse for abstaining from marriage is celibacy. Now both come with responsibilities befitting of the choice made. If U choose to marry U are under obligation to God and Ur spouse. If U choose to stay singe U are under obligation to God.

The 2nd sounds more appealing!

Yea it is necessary....if everyone starts shying away from marriage, how are we going to replenish the earth legitimately?...........

We are too many on this earth already, don't u know?
So,a break from reproduction wouldn't be a bad idea!

God didnt say He cant take care of His children.............

Yes it is more appealing, however is it easier to stay sexless or to have a righteous outlet for segxwal pleasures pleasing Urselves and God at the same time.

One thing in life is where ever we choose to stand, we will be tested. the stronger our resolve, the greater the tests to be proved  and temptations to be undergone.

Why leave it apart? Have I lied that sex is among the things the body craves and that the temptations of the body are hardest to overcome except by grace?

I don't see a problem in that!
It's something called "self control"!

Well that's good for U then, but my advice is if U should choose the path of celibacy don't trust in Urself, rather in God. U sound to me sometimes like U think U cannot fall.
