A marital commitment is as much to age as your partner. Your actions have to be justified in front of God as much as your spouse. Do millennials even believe in God these days?

OTOH if it's majority Christians that reproduce among the new gens because the others are too selfish or incapable of relating to other humans, not such a bad thing.

“Do millennials even believe in God these days?”

I respect your views about the importance of God in marriage. Maybe we need a concerted effort to get back to that.

But as any divorced man can tell you, modern marriage, at its core, is merely a financial and legal arrangement between 2 people and their government, with a variety of tax and personal finance implications.

I have asked several women if they would be interested in church marriage - without signing the legal papers - and they all scoffed.

I have attended plenty of church weddings where the couple swore to God that they would stay married for the rest of their lives. Now they’re divorced. So they lied to God. They don’t see anything wrong with it, it’s just a play they were in once.

For today’s women, modern marriage is about money, status, and lots of fun wedding photos for their instagram.

"...majority Christians that reproduce among the new gens..."

Self-professed Christians do have a chunk of the percentage in the divorce rate. Many think they can say a "sinner's prayer" and proceed in their adultery/remarriage to the adultery partner even after they are supposedly "saved" in the first place.

Christian-family-commitment. People look for shortcuts way to much. Stay away from potential relationship partners where their happiness can only come from external material sources.
