Just one thought again, Defender. Related to that 1969-Awake. Have a look at this:
1Cor 7:25-31
Concerning the Unmarried
25 Now about virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord’s mercy is trustworthy. 26 Because of the present crisis, I think that it is good for a man to remain as he is. 27 Are you pledged to a woman? Do not seek to be released. Are you free from such a commitment? Do not look for a wife. 28 But if you do marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face many troubles in this life, and I want to spare you this.
29 What I mean, brothers and sisters, is that the time is short. From now on those who have wives should live as if they do not; 30 those who mourn, as if they did not; those who are happy, as if they were not; those who buy something, as if it were not theirs to keep; 31 those who use the things of the world, as if not engrossed in them. For this world in its present form is passing away."
The Bible itself (Paul) was telling the christians in the first century not to marry and have families. The end was supposed to be so close. This was written about 1900 years before that infamous Awake of 1969. It's not difficult to come to some conclusions. ........but it's tragic. Who knows how many of the first christians were fooled by Paul not to have a normal life in stead of waiting for the end of the world. I hope we have learned our lession in our time.
