I disagree, for the fact that marriage is a bond that allows for a sane and just society, not to mention that it is the bond that is sanctified by God.

Granted, I've never been married, that is besides the point. Without the family, our society would fall into complete and utter chaos, much worse than the muck that we're currently in.

Sad to say, you're both correct...society can't exist long term without a commitment to children, which means marriage.

Laws have progressed to the point where a man would have to be a chump to get married or become a father.

A society which requires that half it's members be chumps to exist is doomed.
