Marriage....if you had it to do all over again would you?

[chloe]

LOL I'm not Mormon, just willing to make an exception for you or Drew Barrymore!! And by the way my wife has actually agreed to allowing a second wife if Drew would say yes. So, it's not a matter of can I, it's merely a matter of, does my wife want her to? LOL

dang it , I wish I looked like drew barrymore !

[chloe]

Not what I was referring to.

If you can't stand the heat, stay out of Chloe's panties. Is that what you are telling me?

He's saying he likes me


it is possible he has met me before....wink

[Gunny]

give me a drag, marriage makes me nervous too buddy !

Nervous? More like allergic.

[Jess]

I was actually in a marriage for about 13 years. Was it all great? No. Would I marry again? Maybe.

Maybe not - just to irritate my family.



BUT I learned a lot from my marriage, was exposed to some things that were good and some things that were bad. The best things that were a result of the marriage I wouldn't trade for anything.

Dunno for sure what I'll do in the future - life is a big ole learning experience and there is still much to learn. Who knows what the rest of life holds?

If divorce happens even against innocent party spouse's will,she or he can't remarry.Divorce and remarriage is a dreadful sin called adultery,Malachi 2:16,Mark 10:12,Hebrews 13:3.

What about widows and widowers? Are they to go through the rest of their lives alone? Having the tremendous responsibility of raising children, providing for them without a partner? Being alone will also cause a person to have fantasies, lust and all sorts of wicked things.

Damned if you don't and damned if you do, hmmm? Somehow I think God is not that sadistic. Perhaps yours is, though.

Let's try to stick with the reality of the world we live in. Even IF your interpretation is correct, my interpretation says I'll be forgiven. I somehow doubt a benevolent God wants us to be miserable for an entire lifetime.

Don't you know only Calvinist Baptists will make it to heaven.

I thought that was Church of Christ?

I once back in my single days dated a gal who attended a Church of Christ. Little old country church, about 50 members. She talked me into going one time, as I sat there the preacher rambled on about how ONLY the people who attended THEIR specific church would find heaven. So I'm to believe that only 50 people are going to heaven? WOW

I can't stand church.

[SassyLady]

I can't stand church.

I love my church ... it's in my backyard, in my hammock, under the trees, looking up at the sky, listening to the country sounds of birds, chickens, cows, horses, sheep, kids yelling.....and no one standing there telling me it's a sin to lay in the hammock because my house isn't clean, or the laundry done.

Love my church!!!

Define: marriage

Are we talking about a deep love and commitment between people? Are we talking about the recognition of a union by religious authorities? Are we talking about legal/tax status granted by the State?

Oh Lordy. Perhaps this thread isn't for you.

[Abbey Marie]

I am one of those first time, still-married types. and you are right, I would do it all over again.

[ConHog]

Psst rationale discussion of ANY kind is not for JT.

As it is written that widows and widowers are free when their spouses die.Their marriages were annuled by death.It as spouses give an oath during the wedding ceremony, till death do you part.People have God's right to remarry if their sposes die.
