IF MARRIAGE IS A CONTRACT SHOULD.....

If marriage the oldest form of organisation inherent in human nature, some people call it a contract.
Seeing the current trends of marriage, in your view should marriage as a contract, have a fix term that need to be renewable, or should society cancel this form of organisation?
Or should people see marriage as a lifelong commitment?

"Marriage should be a mutual contract that need constantly to be renewed, it's evolution is based on current societal trends and the difficulties within a marriage needs constantly to be fixed by the parties involved in marriage by influencing each other's behaviour".Having said that, people can call it quit if the is no need to renew such a commitment.

I believe if marriage is viewed as a contract that it totally makes a mockery of said marriage.Its rather sad but marriage no longer has the values it was intended to have. Tiz a lifelong commitment but it seems people no longer wish to commit for life.Times,situations,lifestyles and opinions have changed so much over the last 30 years or so.....The statistics for marriage failures are rather grim i think...I.M.O...teddybear conversing
Any agreement is a contract by definition.

If someone doesn't wish to commit to a life time, just tell the other person that, then get out of the way, so they can go find someone who will.
Marriage used to be an expectation by society, a business deal, and something permanent.
Times have changed, people have changed...maybe the formal contract should be extinguished and let people live together by sheer will and get the government out of it? scold Just a thought...dunno I don't know....
If you are in Washington and want to do that who is stopping you? If people wish to live together they do. But of course when the other person dies and it was their house and their distant niece kicks you out and keeps the car and even the dog too because you didn't marry them, please don't wail about it.
I know it, Ken, I know it......problems, problems. It isn't easy....you have to protect your a**-ets.....
