New Spin on the Marriage Contract

[HoosierGuy]

I disagree. He is very much promoting the idea and is attempting to persuade others that the 2 year marriage thing is a good idea.

I'm saying the two year option should be available to the U.S. public for those that want or need it. I'm not saying all people must take the two year option. I'm not saying the LDS Church must recognize it. The Church does not have to recognize it and neither do all the other churches in the U.S.

I'm not even saying the U.S. should have the two year option for ever and ever. We should enact it and try it out for ten or twenty years. If it's semi-successful then keep it. If hardly anyone uses it then get rid of it.

I really don't know what the big deal is about this issue. The divorce rate is extremely high. Studies are showing women are becoming more independent and have discovered they don't need or want traditional marriage.

So what does it hurt to try this out for a decade or two? It's not like it's going to hurt many people. If anything it could be a benefit and increase families and their relationships.

Nothing much to lose but a lot to gain!

I think you are living in some kind of fantasy world. I see how more harm would be done by this than good.

You are welcome to your opinion.

Hey, I love semantical games as much as anyone. But the fact is, you can't paint over a failed marriage (or a sham union whose sole raison d'etre is for sex) by eliminating the word "divorce" from everyone's vocabulary.

Call it whatever you want, but you aren't solving anything. The downward spiral of the family will continue--evidenced by, inter alia, the fact that you [HoosierGuy] still can't come up with a coherent statement as to what "rights" this proposed arrangement protects and why society ought to take the trouble to protect said "rights" by a novel legal mechanism.

I wonder if they have a common-law 2 year marriage?

I'm just kidding. This post is a joke. Please don't be mad at me. It is a complete and total joke. I'm not trying to 'start' anything. I just couldn't hold it back. Sorry!!!
