Okay, you're just scaring me.
LOL!!!!!!!!!
The judge is a very old and dear friend of both hubby and me and the restaurant,where we got married, which was a whorehouse in the 50s and 60s, is owned by a couple who are also very dear friends of ours.
Thank you for the clarification. I thought that was where you were going, but I wasn't 100% sure.
The advocates of same-sex marriage make a very compelling case that divorce is far more damaging to society. I doubt we would be debating same-sex marriage now if it weren't for the prevalence of opposite-sex divorce.
I bet it was a nice ceremony then. :)
You are one of the sanctimonious souls to whom I was referring.
I have no guilt whatsoever. I feel sorry for those who profess to be Christians yet consider condemning a woman (or man) to a life of abuse at the hands of a spouse to be less of a sin than that of divorce.
If some of these "Christians" are indicitative of Christianity, I want no part of their version of "Christianity."
"Judge not, lest ye be judged" does not seem to come into their mindset.
Of course many of them don't consider Catholics to be Christians anyway.......but that's their problem not mine.
BTW, I just re-read xchrist's (I think that is the name) lat post to me, and it looks like he still thinks I am not married to my husband. Would you take a look at it and see if you are reading it the same way? I don't want to go off on him if I'm just being over-sensitive.
Thanks.
It's 343, btw!
Don't be divorced!
Don't have premarital sex!
Don't buy porn!
I guess it's lotion and the victoria secret catalogue.
LOL!!!!!!
When our daughter was about 3, her favorite video was "when mommy and daddy got married." The ceremony is actually rather comical.........the Judge had to stop it at one point to ask for a kleenex for the bride who had mascara running down her face, the groom dropped the ring and someone shouted "fumble", and then the bride was unable to get the ring on the groom's finger!!!!!
Other than that, it was a lovely ceremony!!!
(said daughter was born 17 months AFTER the ceremony)
Okay, how's this for scary? All I could think about while that was playing was how I could play that and totally screw with my kids' heads. Hahahaha
LOL! That's great! My husband and I were teasing each other mercilessly while we were waiting for the JP to finish up his paperwork, and I remember him asking us "Are you sure you two want to get MARRIED?" LOL
I think he was reassured when we stood up to say our vows and my hands were shaking from nervousness and I almost fainted! LOL I think he realized then that the teasing was just nerves. :)
Then, as we were leaving, he said, "You've done the drive through wedding, don't do the drive through dinner to celebrate!" Unfortunately, he said that to a pregnant lady, and of course, because of that comment, I made Mr. Ex take me to Wendy's afterwards! LOL
BTW, we were already engaged when we got pregnant, to anyone who is curious...we just moved the date up! We've been married almost six years now and have three kids together with one more on the way.
You're twisted, sister. :-)
Merci.
You're not being overly sensitive.......he/she obviously doesn't think my husband and I are married either.
Maybe it's just me, but I find those that have to constantly harp about their "Christianity" or another's supposed lack thereof must be missing something very meaningful in their lives.
I have my faith, but feel no need to either wear it upon my sleeve or shove it down the throats of others.
