amen! preach on, brother!

i mean, just because you fuck someone else, beat your wife for burning dinner, and just generally live in a loveless marriage doesn't mean she has a right to just up and leave, right?! we need to think about the kids, people...

If divorce required mutual consent I'd never get married.

This law raises the costs of getting married, thus discouraging it. That's a funny way to protect marriage. Not only is the proposed law immoral and unethical, it's also counterproductive to the stated goals of the organization pushing it.

This leads me to believe that the Family Foundation hates families. They obviously hate gay families and single parent families. But since they wish to force families into a loveless parody of marriage it seems they hate all families. Laws like this aren't about protecting marriage or families; they are about forcing women into domestic positions where they get bossed around by men.

I do beleive the article says "except in certain instances, such as abuse or cruelty." So the assumption that a woman can not divorce her husband for abuse is absurd.

Of course I live in a state that gives the Judge the ability to deny a divorce and force the hapless couple into marriage counseling. Then the couple has to have the court appointed marriage counselor approve the possibility of a divorce. Then he can deny it for any other reason he see's fit.

You know, your point gets lost when you're completely full of shit and your rants factually contradict the source you quote.

Who comes up with this crazy stuff?

Just another reason I'll never make the mistake of getting married again.

George: I..I've given this a lot of thought. I'm sorry, but we, uh, we have to break up.

Maura: No.

George: ...What's that?

Maura: We're not breaking up.

George: ...We're not?

Maura: No.

George: ......Alright.

Facts ! We don't need any stinking facts, we have opinions.

You know how many gals have given me the divorce before the whole blah blah marriage bit? Can't we do something about that already fer chrissakes?

It's true that he got that part wrong. Regardless, it's still a mind-numbingly stupid idea.

Dear Family Foundation:
Please send hot womens or family will remain unfounded.
Thank you,
Wheezy

Amen.

Perhaps the best way to reduce the rate of divorce, is to encourage people to have long periods of engagement before getting married. That way they have more time to find out prior to getting married that, shock, horror, their intended spouse is not right for them after all.

Proving that abuse has taken place can be a difficult thing. Hence, in practice, many people in abusive relationships would be unable to obtain a divorce.

we are all doomed....
