For those of you who live in Washington State, I strongly urge you to sign the petition and support Initiative 957, the “Defense of Marriage Initiative.”
This groundbreaking and innovative initiative would ensure that childless marriages are banned since, as state courts have noted, marriage is “exclusively for the purpose of procreation and child-rearing.”
I agree with this 100%. It kind of goes with my feeling that the gay community has been going about this wrong. We shouldn’t be fighting to get married, we should be fighting to abolish marriage entirely.
Well, under this provision, Gary and I would not be married! Woot!
Gee MT, are things going that well in your household?
I think since most marriages end in divorce that is what is hurting the sanctity of marriage the most. I think if they truly want to protect marriage, divorce should be outlawed.
I’m just sad I can’t marry myself…I think I’m pretty great. oh bother…
marriage and divorce are so easy these days it’s just another way to say you’re just dating someone…that is, it doesn’t have much of a value anymore. bah.
Ah, you know. Some of us are responsible enough NOT to bring more kids into this world.
I think that one of the next steps for this group is to ban divorce if people have children.
Woot.
Oh, god no… never ban divorce! If so I’d still be married to my first husband and going quietly insane. I say just ban marriage. Period. At the end of the day it’s just a piece of paper and an excuse to throw a party in formalwear.
