Poor Social Commentery

I found this while looking around on a friends facebook page and after reading the comments, I decided to take a look. though some of the pictures are just humorous cake toppers, some of them, though cleaver, are just...wrong? is that the word I'm looking for?

To me Marriage is a sacred institution that needs to be saved. people are walking down the aisle and then turning around and running to the courthouse at the first sign of trouble these days. don't get me wrong, if one partner is abusive, then I say get away as soon as you can, or if the other partner is unfaithful and you can't forgive them, but if the two of you have a disagreement, it's not the end of your marriage. I read one reader's comment, saying that she thinks Marriage isn't practical these days and is only for the highly religous. *shakes her head* I consider myself religous, though I haven't read the Bible, I don't attend church reguarly, but I view Marriage as sacred, two people entering an enternal bond, pledging their loyalty and selves to their partner before God and everyone till death do them part. I also believe that people should WAIT till after they get married to have sex, but they shouldn't get married just because they want to take the next step. Marriage, like divorce shouldn't be entered lightly, unlike divorce, Marriage is supposed to last forever, he or she will be the one you live with, laugh with, cry with, worry about, pray for, fight with, and millions of other things for the rest of your lives. it's a huge Commintment, because after the 'I do's' it's no longer me and her(or him), it's we.

As we move away from what marriage really stands for, we begin to trivaltize everthing that the institution stands for, Last year here in California, we the voters had to either stand up and support the tradtional values and rights granted to us by Marriage, or allow it to be changed to allow members of the same sex allow to marry and thus allowing them to call themselves "married". Now, don't get me wrong, I have no problems with homosexuals, if I'm friends with you, I'll remain your friend, but I don't think their union should be called a marriage. and on Nov 8th, Prop 8 was voted in favor of the traditional values (can't remember if that was a no vote or a yes vote)....

I think the point is, we really need to protect and rebuild the sacredness of marriage.
