Today’s video challenge is a video of a crazy Russian wedding where everybody is dressed up as a bear. I have no idea why this is so. It confuses the hell out of me in fact but it is your job to find the political analogy hidden within.
As always the winner gets a free Media Research Center bumper sticker! Good luck:

Weird. God ordained marriage. Marriage is a sacrament (if you are Catholic) and if you are not, it is still a most sacred covenant involving husband, wife and God. More and more people are mocking the ceremony. Guess it just goes along with everything else people are doing to mock God and his holy offices.
The "Furry" culture is prevalent among bloggers.
Likewise, the "blogger" culture is prevalent among Furries.
Which might you be?
All Christian denominations believe in the sacrament of marriage. Not just the Roman version of Christianity.
This certainly isn’t like the Russian Wedding in “The Deerhunter.”
Even the Bears: did you see the two white ‘girl’ bears dancing? lol
Cute video - looks like they were having fun - weird fun- but fun nonetheless.....
I’m sure she’ll bear him some fine young’ns.
I don’t believe the term “sacrament” is used in all of them.
I thought it cheapened something that is ordinarily very beautiful. Just my opinion.
Well, that’s one way of getting out of buying a wedding dress you can only wear once.
Well if not, they are not really Christian are they.
Not impressed and not funny...
I believe God knows who His people are, whether they use words that appeal to you or not.
Yes of course the LORD knows who His people are. And they are to be found among those who practice the Word.
Let me repeat-—not only the Roman version of Christianity (catholic)as you initially posted.
I did a doublecheck; only Roman Catholics have marriage as a “sacrament” along with Holy Orders, Extreme Unction, etc. Protestants officially recognize as sacraments only Baptism and Communion.
It is not that Christians of other denominations do not recognize that marriage is sacred, God-ordained, or a covenant, but that it is not considered a “sacrament” in way that term is used.
Not sure why you seemed to disagree. I didn’t make up this stuff; just mentioning it. Frankly, it’s all just semantics to me. I like how the Catholics do it, but I don’t have a problem with the Protestants either.
Next time do a triple check. Somehow you overlooked the original Church of the Lord.

I don’t think I ignored anyone, but should have left off “Roman” from the designation Catholic. Either way, the point is that not all use that term and that was what I was trying to say and you seemed to have a problem with that.
For whatever it’s worth, my understanding of the original church of the Lord is that that would consist of the Jewish disciples of Christ, so the Jews would be the first and original.
