I feel like it's a rather unnecessary procedure. I mean you can live happily in the EXACT same way without having the same last name, and if things go sour you can simply just leave and that's that. It's just become the social norm now for most people to get married.
It's nice to have reason to celebrate, but what's to stop you celebrating anyway?
Depends, if you get married when you are 20 these days you've created a nuesence. Â (with the exception of a small percentage) Â If you do it when you're 40 now it should be a blessing. Â Life was simpler 50 years ago, you got a job then a gal and had kids.... Â These days money rules, she may love ya but if you don't got coin it won't mean crap to her if you get up and go to work everyday to support you two. Â Â
I believe it is a divinely given institution between a man and a woman. Jesus said in Mark 10,
6) But from the beginning of creation, God made them male and female.7) Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife,8) and the two shall become one flesh. So they are no longer two but one flesh.9 What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.
So obviously, I believe it is a blessing. Anything outside the bounds of God's definition is open rebellion against the created order.

Don't forget the dowry in which two patriachal heads of family make a deal for their children to marry for economic and political gain.. Afterall we are talking about traditional marriage right?
Since we throwing bible verses around: 1 Corinthians 7:8 - "Im telling those who are single and widows that its good for them to stay single like me." Marriage is good but don't feel pressured to marry.

For Jesus to say that, it seems pretty odd that he was a 34 year old Bachelor then doesn't it?
That said, neither is being single for your whole life.
I think a lot of people who should never marry and are better off on their own try the whole family thing and then divorce, but only after having a kid or starting some serious financial commitment.Â
I think it's more of a nuesence because I'm seeing people get married as soon as they're done with school, or some girls I graduated with are apparently getting married to guys in the army at the age from 18-21 anymore.

Time and time again I have complimented you as a poster
So who cares.... Â You woulda cut my throat in public last year.... Â You think he cares what you think..... like I said, the sun is the yellow thing in the sky..... don't look at it directly, it's as harmful as posting on the net thinking people will give a ****!
[QUOTE="dave123321"][QUOTE="nomsayin"][QUOTE="dave123321"] Yes. Pay attention Dave man up Man up how worlock just badmouthed you..don't just sit there man. refute his assertion.
[QUOTE="nomsayin"][QUOTE="dave123321"][QUOTE="nomsayin"] Dave man up Man up how worlock just badmouthed you..don't just sit there man. refute his assertion. worlock made a valid point. There is no need to push things further then that other then to say that I do offer some ontopic posts
[QUOTE="dave123321"] worlock made a valid point. There is no need to push things further then that other then to say that I do offer some ontopic posts so you're saying that rubbish spews out of your mouth?

[QUOTE="dave123321"] If that is how you want to define it, yes My advice remains the same then: Man up. Don't dehumanize yourself. You're better than that. You're not a little boy anymore. Dave, you're capable of great things. Stop living in the past.
[QUOTE="nomsayin"][QUOTE="dave123321"] When is our friend brucie coming back? I don't know. He is reluctant to just make an alt. maybe I am wrong about him and he has one already.
I don't think so. If he had an alt, i think he'd probably let one of us know. Those are my thoughts. But maybe he isn't all that he seems to be at the surface
