I do believe the law is involved in these matters for good reason. How would you settle disputes and the custody of children. And the division of property?

Are you suggesting we revert to the law of the jungle where the biggest person gets it all?

And I like my children legitimate, under the law if you will.

I don't think marriage would work for you.

Of course not. We have laws to settle disputes over assets outside of marriage, do we not? I said that marriage should be a non-civil union. I think government has created a no fault, winner-take-all mockery of it, which denies certain people their right to equal protection under the law.

You can't blame men and women for wanting to protect themselves from all the things you mentioned, can you? And as I said, outside of raising children, I don't see any reason for civil marriage given the laws in place today. And I'm far, far from alone.

And I like my children legitimate, under the law if you will.

So do I.

Read my home page. I'm glad it has worked for you.
