I know and you know that the state’s take on marriage isn’t the right one, with the ‘gay marriage’ thing just the latest wrongness. It hasn’t had the right take on it for centuries, but now most get their definition from the state. Civil law defines marriage for the state, and civil law changes based on whatever judges, pols, or the voting majority think it should be at any one time. The state in the modern era doesn’t have any way to do it. It was probably a huge mistake to hand the definition over to the secular state.

You are correct. But, since SO many Americans divorce, it HAS to be about money, child custody, alimony...and who controls it. It all starts with the first and worst of the seven deadly sins: PRIDE (arrogance).

It doesn't really matter what the state says or does as EACH and EVERY ONE OF US knows what is right in God's eyes. They also know that "permission" from the state may give them a few moments of "whoopee" here and now but THE DAY WILL COME when they have to answer to our good Lord and His judgment.
There WILL be a reckoning!
HIS judgment will be for ETERNITY.
