Marriage is a partnership - and as with any business venture - there can (probably will) be a time to split the assets and debts - and find other more suitable partners. It is nothing more. It is only the friendship of the partners that keep a business alive. Hard work, honesty, and respect for each other, comes with working together over time. No oath before a god or a man is going to provide that. Do we need to hold it to a higher standard? NO. It is a personal relationship - and my marriage has nothing to do with you - stay out of my business. Tend to your own affairs.Should marriage be held to higher standards?
The State of Louisiana has already taken steps to encourage people to treat marriage with more respect. It's now much more difficult to get a divorce in Louisiana than it has been in the past. Basically, the only slam-dunk divorces are when one of the parties is (a) convicted of a felony and sentenced to prison, (b) physically abusive to the other spouse and/or children -- and the abuse has to be documented, or (c) committing adultery. If you walk into a Louisiana court and try to file for divorce because of ';Irreconcilable differences'; the judge is going to tell you and your spouse to grow up, stop behaving like a couple of spoiled brats, and work out your differences.





If only that were the standard in every state...
Wow, christian homophobic bigotry wants to do battle. Okay.


Your god (not mine) has never spoken of gays and marriage.


Half-baked translations of Hebrew and Greek literary works have been conjured by homophobes like you, excluding facts and certain words, so they can over reach for something that CAN be interpreted as ';homos r rong, lulz.'; Short mindedness fails again.


You both need to get a grip and love thy brother like you love your god.


******* Christians.
i think that that is more of an issue with the people within the marriage


humans are fickle, and a lifetime is a long time


i think ppl should be encouraged to try to work things out with a marriage therapist before divorcing


but in the end what else can be done? force ppl to be unhappy?





oh yeah and no u cannot get a quick divorce in a lot of states if there is no abuse or adultery, but u can still get one--u have to live seperately for at least a year
Guess what, I do. I know that one day Veronica and I are gonna to get married on top of a mountain, and there's going to be flutes playing and trombones and flowers and garlands of fresh herbs. And we will dance till the sun rises. And then our children will form a family band. And we will tour the countryside and you won't be invited.
Marriage is held in high respect by God and all those in their right minds.





Homosexuals who say they are ';married'; means basically nothing since marriage cannot be re-defined.


God already told us what marriage is and nothing can change that!


Thank God our Holy Scriptures are safe!
Yes, there should not be incentive in marriage if it is such a godly event, no tax brake, no death and estate protections.
