I personally think marriage is a fine thing,the statistics however do paint a grim picture of said marriage. The way things are going i see marriage becoming almost obsolete in the future. But thats the way the cookie crumbles i think.....moping banana

It would interesting to be able to conduct a survey to see just how many people actually do honor the marriage contract.


I'm sure the results would be pretty interesting.grin

I think marriage can be a good thing for the people involved, when it is a good marriage.

But people often stay in bad marriages, then it can be hell on earth.

What I think about marriage is that it can be a wonderful thing....but one bad one can turn a person against it forever.

I think it's a dying institution. I see fewer and fewer divorced remarry. So while most do marry, if they don;t stay married, the likelihood of remarrying in the future will become less. Marriage is kinda like Ivy League college and Pro sports...not meant for everyone, not everyone can do it. It's really hard to stay in the game after a bad injury or flunking out ...lol

Sadly, it is a dying institution. sigh Once upon a time, I thought I would remarry but it's likely never going to happen. wave

Marriage was invented as a way of turning women into the property of men and is a dying institution.

There is nothing like marriage to ruin a relationship and it is the major cause of divorce.

This is a very strange and original comment, i have never read that marriage is against lack of religion.people get married being religious or not.
Marriage has a lot to do with faithfulness than with religion.

well actually it's an institution invented by religion. Patriarchal Religions dominate the world and have done for thousands of years.

I find it absolutely ridiculous, I have never married and enjoy wonderful relationships with all the fathers of my children...


I own my life, my body and my choices...
I also never lived with the fathers of my children...they participated but from their own homes... we all turned out great.

Again your comments are extraordinary "i don't think one owns his or her own life" You don't know where you are from and you don't know where you're heading to.We just live, so we are permitted to live by 'THE MOST HIGH GOD.

Marriage is like a very huge circle.

Some outsiders want to jump inside the circle.

And some insiders want to jump out.

Didier...you find it necessary to contradict my views fine.. i get it.
You feel threatened by a woman that does not bend over to a male god...good luck with that..

in my world THERE IS NO GOD
BUT I DON'T GO AFTER YOU TO COMPLAIN ABOUT YOUR POV.

these forums are full of religious people and no one but you feels the need to criticize me for my lack of belief.

Marriage is a very important commitment. Shared commitment nurtures trust, respect and caring. Once committed, relationships should be build and sustained. Couples need time, make mistakes, and then figure out ways that works. If it is one-sided, give it up as a bad job...

I believe that marriage is not ratified by a piece of paper, or a ceremony that man must recognise. I believe that marriage takes place in the soul and spirit of two people, that it is the binding of these two souls and spirits in a way that is unique and unmatchable.

I think that marriage is something that is not easily understood by those who don't understand it. It is something very special, but also full of commitment when it would be easier and simpler to walk away.

It is irrational because some people who are married stay married when there seems no reason for them to do so. This is because I believe marriage supercedes reason and is effected through soul and spirit.

It is a binding of mind, body and soul. It is amazing and it can be hell.

I believe that marriage is worth all the ups and the downs and that it has its own rewards, pleasures and benefits that other types of relationships just don't have.

Cheers.

During civilised times the marriage/family is the founding unit of civilisation.

During modern times marriage is a wheat from the chaff separator. There'll be fewer successful marriages but this demographic will be the one whose children largely do not starve or become an underclass as the West gets poorer and poorer. Our society is like a veiled social darwinism, what we do is debase normalcy and encourage dysfunctional weirdry so that only the best genetics will choose the right way.

My prediction is today's successfully married will mostly ancestor a high-IQ, slim, tall and attractive race of elf-like Humans. And those who not will predominantly ancestor a dim-witted, ugly and fat race of goblin-like creatures.

Why do you keep posting polls when you obviously try to discredit anyone whose opinion is not yours.

NOT everyone here is Christian or religious nor do they share your views. So when you ask for opinions, you are going to get a variety.

This is a forum and you are ASKING for opinions. Why do you bother if you don't want the answers?

I appreciate your views, but we don't criticise people's opinion, simply stating what i believe is not forcing any person to adhere to my believes or changing people's views.

I've never been married (so far), but I believe it is a personal choice--no one should be forced into it. The two people involved choose how, when, and where to do it. They choose how to behave in it, and how to treat their partner. They choose whether to stay in it or to get back out of it. Simple as that, but apparently not easy. I don't know how people manage it. comfort
