Which is why I'm trying to give the matter long consideration.

Thus arises the question of what is the benefit of marriage to _society_, that benefits should be given to encourage it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12392119.post-40040138188777850532008-08-23T12:38:00.000-07:002008-08-23T12:38:00.000-07:00The thing is that we are here for a very short tim...The thing is that we are here for a very short time and I want the best of this world!<BR/><BR/>I think one has to work for it!<BR/><BR/>If you find someone to love or be with I think it’s great!<BR/><BR/>I don’t care about building a “family fortune” or what the hell ever and neither is my mate!<BR/><BR/>We are in it for a good time and to enjoy!<BR/><BR/>It’s just that simple. <BR/><BR/>I really don’t give a grass ass what others do as long as it doesn’t effects me and my life style. <BR/><BR/>I can have what I want with or without a man! He knows that too! :)<BR/><BR/>I don't get the rest of the world Indigo they all drive me nuts!<BR/><BR/>Loved the Maxine cartoons Don sent me :D :D :Ddcathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04363324417913254868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12392119.post-41544427504908923392008-08-22T22:12:00.000-07:002008-08-22T22:12:00.000-07:00Ahhh, that's a different situation then, suek.I be...Ahhh, that's a different situation then, suek.<BR/><BR/>I believe in the traditional defintion of marriage because it has served well for a very long time. The purposes of marriage within that definition as marriage between 1 man/1 woman are the same - physical, emotional, and financial security. It's also common, especially in arrainged marriages, the marriage links families to increase familial fortunes. Usually, procreation is a major factor.<BR/><BR/>As we know, many marriages are marriages of convenience - 'if we don't marry someone by the time we're 30, we'll get married' deals. More common than most folks will say. Marriage for financial gain is still very common.<BR/><BR/>Now gay marriage comes along and upsets the applecart. Not so much that homosexuals join as one family unit because they have done that for millenia, but now gays want to force the civil right to be married in churches, the quintessential private organization, that disapprove of homosexual practices. By marrying, gays obtain access to the over 1100 laws that apply the marrieds, but not singles.<BR/><BR/>Gay marriage changes all the rules. In the senior community, the widowed are marrying to combine retirement and Social Security incomes, avoid the lonliness of aging, and for the securiity of another person in case of accident. Why then would it not be possible for two men, non-homosexuals, to marry to obtain the marriage benefits, in essence, game the system?<BR/><BR/>Because the basic rule of marriage, one man/one woman no longer applies, why not any combination? Since I am single, I would then experience discrimination because I am banned from those 1100 rights granted to marrieds. If any combination of sexes and numbers may be possible, could I marry myself?<BR/><BR/>Ridiculous? That's what was said about gay marriage not five years ago. In Israel, a woman married a porpoise. With the US courts recognizing international rights, will people be allowed to married outside their species and still collect the benefits of the marrigae laws?<BR/><BR/>Or do we just scrap all marriage traditions and laws? No one will be held responsibe for the monetary obligations entered into while a couple...or trio, or whatever. We have a very big problem with deadbeat parents who do not pay for the children they already have. The changing or abandonment of marriage laws, would actually encourage parentage without responsibilty. The welfare program has shown us how well that works.<BR/><BR/>I object to state participation in marriage beyond contract law. But, for centuries the state has regulated marriage and much of our laws relate to marriage. Marriage should never have become a civil right, but remained only a religious rite. Contract law should have governed the rest.<BR/><BR/>But, that's not the case and it's too late to change things simply by changing a few laws. Gay marriage, however, will become a reality and we shall see what happens and whose prognastications are correct.Indigo Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17906787350123925867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12392119.post-795567487272044732008-08-22T18:43:00.000-07:002008-08-22T18:43:00.000-07:00I am really having problems with islamic muslim th...I am really having problems with islamic muslim thugs not who is sleeping with whom or popping out rug rats!

As a theological issue, his answer is one that is "humble" - some questions are not up to us."<BR/><BR/>Since you broughht up theology... God created life. By the Commandment, thou shalt not kill (murder) and the injunction that "Judgement is mine" said God, then one cannot argue that abortion i.e. killing a human baby, is not up to us. Therefore, abortion is murder and that is forbidden by God.<BR/><BR/>However, I am Atheist so I need another reason. It's wrong. Period. Otherwise, all murder can be justified as retroactive abortion. As attractive as that option often seems, it would also be available to others against me and I'm against that.<BR/><BR/>No suek. I believe the primary purpose of marriage is manifold. The tradition provides mental, emotional, financial, and physical security. It has been shown to extend the lives of the participants. Married people have been shown to be happier and healthier than singles and never-marrieds.<BR/><BR/>The creation of children increases the bonds and happiness factors particularly in the first six to seven years of the child's life. Family creation is termed a biological imperative. If it was not, the human species would have died out long ago.<BR/><BR/>Truth in advertising: I have never been married and niether do I have children.<BR/><BR/>I see nothing primitive in any of those reasons, but if that's how you want to interpret millions of years of marriage tradition - okay.Indigo Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17906787350123925867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12392119.post-77897532361470900932008-08-20T21:39:00.000-07:002008-08-20T21:39:00.000-07:00LOL oh ok suek I got ya now hehehe.
