St Paul thought that there was no point in people getting married because the return of the Lord was imminent.

Yup i remember that. If you're already married then fine but don't go out trying to get married because it's not gonna matter lol.
Yeah i do think it's telling that even Paul was sure that the return would happen within the generation....and Christians have kept being sure of that for the last 2000 years...

@walabby That's super duper not why Paul taught that

Paul was generally against marriage unless you just couldn't keep it in your pants but it was my reading as well that he was saying that there was no point in getting married because Jesus would be returning soon.
