Hi
Perhaps the phenomenon of not marrying a woman started with Paul; if he was incapable of that, that would be best known to my Catholics friends here.
Muhammad was not the first man in the human history who married more that one woman; I think it started with Abraham or much before him; and Judaism, Christianity and Islam are called Abrahamic religions you know.
Kindly read the OTBible and you would know as to how many women did David marry; and Jesus was from his line, so it should not be surprising that he would have married more than one at least. There is no evidence that Jesus did not have the sexual organs; if he did not have them, his mother never mentioned it from the very childhood. We don’t find any mention in NTBible that he lost them afterwards, so most probably he must be full of youth, a strongman of 6 feet at least with full vigour.
If he had them and could not use them; then why he had them in the first place, whose mistake was it, or he was provided with them uselessly, and that is impossible. Nature doesn’t usually provide things uselessly.
I don’t want to go further in details; as my Catholic friend whom I love so much may or may not like it. I would however say that marrying a woman legally was not a sin for Jesus or for anybody in any religions. Jesus was an innocent person, so my guess is that he must have married. Marriage is an occasion for merry making. If one could celebrate his birth day; one should not mind merry making for his marriage.
This is only my opinion; others are not bound by it. They are free to believe what they think is truth or suit them but with logical reasons like me. No disrespect is intended to anybody past, present or future.
I love Jesus and Mary as I do love Buddha and Krishna.
Thanks
