Instead of spending another day immersed in Middle Eastern names, culture, religion, death and destruction, the world was treated to western culture, etiquette and a Christian gathering in the House of the Lord, to celebrate the marriage of a man and a woman who love one another.
It was a beautiful ceremony, in a beautiful setting.
It was uplifting. It was a happy, joyous day.
I wish the newlyweds a loving and productive life.
Queen Elizabeth can take a bow now that the British royal family will be in good hands after she's gone.
have a great week-end and get some rest...
No, my wife and I did not have sex before marriage. And Jesus forgives - IF we repent. But if we boast of our sin, he does not forgive us.
They had the right to get married. However, they have been very open about living together and the church ought to tell them a church wedding is for those who agree with what the church teaches. Of course, in the case of the Anglican church, that might not be much anymore...
so people who have sex before marriage are never to marry in a church with family and friends as a witness?
This is America..land of the rich and poor, good and bad, sick and ill and we are all created EQUAL...EXCEPT FOR you...
THAT IS SAD...and you are raising kids...hope they believe everything you do and they never sin...
People who want to be married in church ought to be Christians. That requires them to repent of sin. Not to be sinless, but to be repentant.
America does not rule God or the church of God. Do you support having homosexuals marry in church? What about transsexuals? After all, “This is America..land of the rich and poor, good and bad, sick and ill and we are all created EQUAL..”
Here is my favorite scene...

have a good week-end and be sure to attend church of your choice on Sunday..
I don’t know. The whole cohabitation thing is bothersome, but they are at least getting married BEFORE they have children and aren’t doing some awful carting around of 7 children UNMARRIED like Angie and Brad or something.
Looks like we learned from each other..and again I appreciate your effort, despite my initial angry posts.
Who from the US government was invited to the wedding? I know for a fact that the obama family wasn’t. Perhaps they could have placed the Churchill bust in a chair that was reserved for the US.
“I’m Catholic and was surprised at how much the service paralleled a Catholic wedding”
I dated an Episcopalian, and he referred to himself as a “J.V. Catholic”. Not sure what that means, but assume there’s little difference.
I thought this was a thread about our Swedish Freeper attending the wedding! :)
“it is very hypocritical for someone who is unrepentant about shacking up for 8 years to want to have a church wedding.”
I doubt if it was an issue — what Kate may, or may not have, “wanted”. This was the Queen’s show in the end, as are all these types of events.
Wow!
I forgot the name of the club we (group of guys from work, no girlfriends) ended up at. It was “’x’ Blue” or “Blue ‘x’”. Part of the club had a roller skating rink in it, and it was close to the Ferris wheel. Any FReepers that know the name of the club, please share.

Usually when someone I don’t know gets married I don’t give a flip. Maybe that’s just me. ;d
Great comment!
A lot of people are involved in events that are more than just about them (as I articulated in my post). Besides, I don't KNOW a lot of people who are in the news but I still feel it's within my free speech rights to discuss how they effect me.
