if you aren't a newfag, you know the wizard meme on this board?
The irony is that the monastics are the holiest on earth because they focus on glorifying God, growing closer to Him, and in turn it allows them to love people selflessly.
You really need to get over yourself though. You are not so hopeless that God cannot help you. God is more powerful and caring than that. If you seek to do His will and follow Him, then He will do what is best for you. If that means marriage as a path to holiness (which is what the Orthodox Church knows the primary purpose of marriage as it is instituted by God is for: to help us become holy together by struggling and enduring and learning together) if that is His will for you it will happen. But you have to work on yourself and struggle against your passions and flaws for it. On the flip side if His will is for you to join a brotherhood and become a literal wizard with prayers that can move mountains, then Glory to God for that too. You just have to accept that you are not in control and that He knows better than you what you need.
Heaven is not a given. It is a reward for those to struggle. In Christ's words, we must DENY ourselves, take up our Cross (suffer and endure in this world), and follow Him (keep His commandments and do His will and achieve holiness and love for all people). Otherwise you will not want to go to heaven, because you won't value the love of God. Instead you will love yourself, and your passions, and your pleasures, and you will condemn yourself away from His love because you will feel so guilty His love meeting your rejecting in life will scald you like fire. That's the Christian understanding of hell: true outer darkness and loneliness and unresolved passions with no release.

Part 2
·The constitution, especially the 2nd Amendment, is ignored by every branch of the government.
·The media/internet is fake propaganda operated and censored by the powers that be.
·Public schools and universities are brainwashing camps run by the powers that be.
·Science and academia are completely politicized and corrupt.
·The medical industry is weaponized against the people. Doctors are either brainwashed or complicit. They poison and torture the population. Their advice is the inverse of reality about what is healthy and what isn't.
·All of the food supply is poisoned with chemicals: toxic pesticides, hormonally active chemicals, heavy metal contamination, microplastic contamination, and others.
-Genetically modified hybrid seeds reliant on exclusive chemical pesticides (Monsanto, glyphosate, etc) that kill everything else in the field and permanently contaminate the soil, and these chemicals/GM seeds are carried to neighboring farmland through erosion and weather systems
·Almost all of the farmland is poisoned to the point the soil is a dead inert growing medium that produces food that is severely lacking in nutrition, causing disease and disability in the population.
-Artificial weather modification, cloud-seeding, HAARP, spraying heavy metal aerosols to create weather systems
·Women can vote and have rights; traditional gender roles are cast aside and unqualified people are doing things they are not made to do in each gender role, vice versa (men forced into female-oriented educational paradigms, etc)
·Family courts are designed to destroy families on the whim of a woman; men and children have no rights or protection.
·The judicial system in general is insanely corrupt.
·Judges constantly legislate from the bench or outright ignore the law, and make findings, sign warrants, etc. with no evidence.

Lord have mercy.
fun fact, in koine Greek, the word for mercy sounds very close to the word for oil, which both historically and scripturally is linked to healing. So when we repeat Lord have mercy so many times in the services, it's absolutely meant that way as a play on words, to ask not just for mercy referring to a sense of justice, but healing for our souls.
