What could possibly go wrong?
be married or be single, don’t be one and pretend you’re the other. This would be a lot simpler if people grew up before they grew old.
“They are very judgmental and think there is only room for two people in a marriage,” she says. “But, as Joe counsels me, you get to write your own story, and nobody can tell us how to live our lives.”
Ah, and in this final paragraph of the article we uncover the truth which is:
1) "Rigidly Christian" really means, we reject God's commands, i.e., God Himself, and;
2) "Nobody can [will] tell us how to live our lives" is nothing more than a naked declaration that there is no God and that they themselves reign supreme.
4"The serpent said to the woman, "You surely will not die! "For God knows that in the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
A friend said it best. His wife refused to have sex with him because “sex wasn’t important to her anymore”. When she caught him cheating, he responded “I thought you said sex wasn’t important to you anymore”.
Hard to have it both ways.
Bill and Hilary supporters?
That will be a bitter harvest. People play these stupid games but eventually it ends in flames.
These are not marriages. They are legal sex worker contracts.
Any woman would be a fool to sign it and any man would be a world class jerk for proposing it.
The creepiness factor is off the charts with this one.
Getting ahead of the Heidi-Ted “arrangement”.
bump for reference
People can pretend these contracts have something to do with real marriage, but they don’t. Gay “marriage” and open “marriage” may have a legal meaning, but they have no moral or spiritual standing. Government officials with guns can force decent people to either help celebrate this nonsense or pay extortion money as a penalty, but even that level of force cannot change reality.
A marriage is one man and one woman, who intend to forsake all others. People make bad decisions, including cheating on their spouses, but planning and negotiating to betray your spouse strikes me as particularly vile:
“Sure, you can have a child that you’ll raise as a single parent because I don’t have any interest, but only if you ignore my misdeeds.”
“Okay, but I want a cap on your number of flings, and I want . . .”
Marriage? Two people becoming one? I think not.
Sadly, we’ve lost our moral compass.
Sheesh - used to be guys who needed a break from marriage went fishing for a weekend.
Moral decay? What moral decay? /sarc
