If Spouses Would Keep the Vows Would There Be Divorces?

I mean what the heck are people thinking when they make their vowels on their wedding day to each other in front of God, their families, and their friends.

Are they just saying I do or I will for the heck of it? I mean if couples would follow their vows their would be no need for divorce.

I mean if you honor love and cherish each other why would you want to seperate?

Now, I know their are some people on this board that have got divorces because their spouses sucked because it does take work by BOTH parties to make the marriage work.

I just think the preacher should ask this when they give the vows. Do you swear on you mama's grave that you are going to cherish this chick or we will plunge your eyes out maybe there would be less divorce.

What do you think?

What the hell are people thinking when they make their vowels? It isn't a spelling contest or the wheel of fortune for God's sake, it's a marriage.
 
Every couple is unique, times change, words are words, actions are actions, actions dominate words.

If spouses would keep the vows would there be divorces? No, but this world we live in is not fantasy land, even you have broken a vow, whether you know it or not, but you are still with your wife, many folks break vows and stay together. peace

I think part of it stems to the motivation one has to get married.

Unfortunately, from what I've seen personally couples tend to marry because they feel pressured to be married by a certain age or they feel that their partner will some how complete them. Then when the grandiose expections placed on their mate is not met - they resent them for not creating in them something they should have done for themselves by themselves.
 
The ONLY reson he's still around cuz he got the "obey" part down to a science.....(snicker, snicker)

In regards to your ?...Who knows? We recited our own vows after the Catholic hoop-la was given at our service.
 
My general thought is that a lot of people just opt to quit their vows when things get tough. Personal responsibility doesn't seem to be trendy right now...so why actually stick to vows?? I wouldn't get married unless I was damn sure I was serious about it.

I totally agree....
 
I think that some people don't take those vows or marriage so seriously. It's very easy to get a divorce and decide that you really shouldn't be married anymore. I think we live in a society that people know that they don't have to stay married or stay faithful. All you have to do is change your mind.
 
Interesting thread. IF people took their vows seriously there would be alot less divorce.
 
Divorce is not only caused by not honoring vows that are made. It's made because people rush into marriage. They might be dating a month or two and suddenly decide that they are ready to be married. Marriage is a whole other ballgame, and one in which people should take heavy consideration.

Hey I know of a sweet little wedding chapel close to here, you wanna get married?





No? Well how about we just skip the wedding and go on the honeymoon then?
 
Yeah, I think if everyone kept their vows there would be less divorce. And if nobody killed anybody there'd be fewer murders too.

Solve it with fear and violence... the Christian way.
Yes, less divorce... and less marriage and more murders.
Are you the same person at 30 as you are at 20? No. And at some points the things you used to love will really piss you off.
 
I think if people actually married the right person then there would be no divorce. Curling's way involves people being unhappy just for the sake of keeping divorce rates down (people don't tend to break their wedding vows (or vowels) when they are happy with their spouse).

I reckon if people didn't break the law then there would be no people in Jail, but maybe we need a poll on that one.

Where does it say in the vows as long as we are happy we will stay married? I don't remember those. I remember something like in sickness and in health for richer or poorer. The health and rich or fine but being poor and unhealthy aren't happy times. Happiness is a state of mind. You choose to be happy or not.
 
That is not the point of my statement, I was refering to the unhappyness derived from not wanting to be with that person, that should be very obvious if you had cared read the entire post carefully

Well why would you marry a person that you weren't happy with in the first place? That is stupid.

Also are you saying in your duragoraty comment about the creator that you created the ground you walk on, the legs you walk with, the air you breath, the heart that pump the blood to the brain you think with and fingers you type with? Just curious Mr Did All Myself Man?

The Big Bang & evloution are the reason for my existance, that is my belief and I am entitled to it just as you are to yours, I also have freedom of expression. My sig. is a retort to all those who thank God for whatever good happens in their life, instead of giving themselves a pat on the back for their own good efforts.

No doubt you will find a line in the post to twist round inorder to satisfy your godly sense of self importance.
 
I am with Curling on this, the question is

IF PEOPLE HONORED THEIR VOWS WOULD THERE BE LESS DIVORCE..

Yes, if you honor your vow to love your spouse through good and bad up and down ... forsaking all others...
there would be less divorce.

Your ability to honor those vows comes down to Morals and Character in my humble opinion.
 
Well if you don't believe in Him why did you capitolize His name? The big bang theory huh? How do you make a sarcastic smiley face well insert one here ____.

God is the reason for everything bro if there wasn't for him you would have nothing to work with.

sh4dowf4lcon,

It all boils down to character and morals dude. And they are fading fast in this country.
 
I told you you would find some small detail to twist round, like I said you can believe in what you want but don't try to make others believe, am I trying to push atheism on you? I just stated my beliefs and left it at that.

Character and morals have nothing to do with religon, they are to do with the person and their upbringing, you don't need to believe in god (UNCAPITALISED just the way you want it) to know the difference between right & wrong. If religion made people good then whats the deal with these Paedophile Priests, the Crusades, murder of the Native americans by good god fearing white people, slavery, spanish inquisition, and more recently the murder/manslaughter of that young Authistic kid who was suffocated whilst trying to rid him of his demons? and before you quote atrocities committed by atheists thats not the point I'm making is it.

also I don't live in the US so the last bit of you post makes no sense.

I don't want this to end up as a 20 page thread so just do the christian thing, turn the other cheek and forgive me for my terrible sins.

I can't forgive sins only God can. But one comment about morals. Isn't is strange how most of the rules we live by are found in the Bible? I mean if we came from the big bang theory who cares what you do in this life. I mean cheat on your taxes, spouse, cheat anyone you can to make your life more pleasurable here.
 
You are one freaky mofo Curling, I think the rules on not killing other people were around b4 the bible was written (e.g pagan law, Greek law, etc) and you still haven't answered me on why holy people have committed such terrible crimes if they were so committed to god. Al Queda are TOTALLY committed to god and aren't they a lovely bunch of people, and guess what ,the book that they read (which is older than the bible by the way) also says not to kill, in fact most of the don't do's are all the same.

The Bible is a rule book of life which was used to control people before there were adequate law & order institutions, thats why heaven and hell were created because there were no prisons, if you make someone believe in Hell they are less likely to commit a crime, its not because they became a better person they just didn't want to go to hell.

I believe that there is no real reason for us being here (apart from the laws of nature), but that doesn't mean that we can't make our own reasons for living, I also believe in law & order, inorder that everyone may have a nicer fairer life . There is no intrinsic fair/unfair right or wrong in nature (of which we are a part of) but we have evloved as social beings, and as social beings we have rules that govern our behavour, this is why we feel guilt and remorse when we do something wrong, this emotional programming of the brain is part of us, so I don't believe that we were all uncontrollable killers up until the point that someone wrote what is now the bible.

If you are going to make another post please try to construct a meaningful argument against what I am saying instead of just posting religious rhetoric. I have responded to your words why can you not respond to mine?

Yours sincerely Mr Did it all myself man

Dude, your post is off topic. The thread is about wedding Vows not whether or not Al Queada Killers are good people with good character. Who cares if their "Book" is older than the Bible? Who said anything about uncontrollable killers???You seem to be ignorant and
your comments are definately off topic. piss off!
