What is Marriage really?
0.) Is it nothing more than a methodical scheme to be able to legally take the assets of your partner?
1.)What? marriage is the ultimate rung on the ladder proving I Love you?
2.)What? marriage is suppose to prove you are straight, so people with money should look at you as a member of their legitimate circle-club and trust you with their money, and jobs?
3.)What? marriage means you are trustworthy and responsible person?
4.) What? marriage means you get more rights than people who don't marry?
5.) What? marriage means you can have legal sex, instead of illegal sex?
6.) What? marriage means you are not really a hooker, or pimp?
7.) What? marriage means you are nice people, and other people aren't?
8.) What ! who can honestly believe marriage is legitimate? You are expected to not live with a person or have sex with this person until you are married. How insane is that, to realistically believe you will be with each other forever, when you don't even have the historical time record to prove you are really meant for each other.
9.) What? The government is going to tell Religious Churches they can marry same sex people? What? I can't marry a tree? I can't marry a picture? I can't marry a coffee cup?
10.) At least being married to my coffee cup, is more unlikely to get divorced. Right? I kiss it everyday, and she tastes good. The only money it asks for is to fill her up.
11.) What? The Church is going to tell the Government what to support and do? Obviously not, especially when they know the Government is married to the Military Industrial Complex, and cares-less about marriage and families, but have only one intention but to bomb and kill people they don't like around the world.
12.) What? marriage is only the next stepping stone to divorce, for your life experience of pain and torture.

Let them marry on earth...
It's because Marriage really is a tax status and institution developed by the State to ensure that the State survives another generation. If marriage did not exist then polyamory would exist and the alternative lifestyle would have more influence. However for a State to exist a level of order needs to exist, taxes need to be paid, and births need to occur. Without this type of structure a State would cease to exist after a few generations.
Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.Hebrews 13:4 >>
It's a huge industry also. Last year, the average American ceremony cost $27,852; the average dress, $1,025. Crazy.
The $161 billion wedding industry seems to have insinuated itself into every corner of the culture — and how impossible it has become to escape its trappings, from diamond rings (which, before the 1930s, were not a de facto wedding accouterment) to wedding planners, bridal registries and glossy magazines that perpetuate weddings as fairy-tale fantasies.
Yes it makes us smile. You know the smile that you have! knowing you know better.
Let me guess, your trying to say that marriage is a scam just to justify your behavior and put it into perception as a normal thing. Let me just say that I am 16 I WANT to be a virgin until I get married because I know I want to save "it" for that someone special. Marriage is that certificate that they are your someone special.
The philosophy these days is not why, it is why not? And that does often lead to immoral behaviors and perverts society! Really, your moral decisions do affect others. And you know the reason I really want to get married so I can show the world HOW MUCH I LOVE her and that they can't have her. That is WHY! Plus, I will love her forever and never betray/cheat on her.
You know what, I'm going to rave this just to get this up in the discussion! Which wont do much.
And I mean as Abraham Lincoln said, "Whatever you are be a good one" and it applies to marriage, you should be a good husband and a good couple, with a good family (if you want a family). The image of marriage needs to be improved is the problem, doesn't necessarily make it a scam if it's changed.
Maybe your perception of marriage is just different.
Again, I am just trying to defend marriage and I think it's a beautiful thing. I won't make a mistake marrying someone, I will marry the best there is out there. I will show the world she is my wife and I am her husband!
With living with others to knoow them is not a very wise idea, same with having sex before your married which will ruin future relationships and inhibit your ability to love, just like porn does and can.
No marriage is not a verb. It is a situation, a manipulation, a societal dysfunction that tries to preserve love, and has never been able to succeed in doing.
I don't need the State or Church to tell me what Marriage is. When in fact they have never known.
Of course you defend marriage, because you like to rest upon the pile of failure, instead of shoveling falsehood out of your heart, and being in the midst of real love.
And why do you feel the need to show the world? I am quite the opposite. I don't want the world to know her. She is my world, no one elses.
I never said to live with others. I only have one I love. Sex can not be based upon contracts, and Marital Vows. Because Sex is the Contract, and is the Vow of love.
I am quite aware of the lusts of porn. Why anyone would want someone to watch them is sad indeed. Love is personal, a comfort that's only known between your love and God.
It isn`t anything to look down upon or feel guilty about.
Sex is a huge part of life, it`s just natural that`s all , and if your wife doesn`t like the look of your family jewels down there, or if she doesn`t like the way you use it, lol, She will look somewhere else. and this goes vice versa to, It`s just the nature of most humans.
