Just thought I'd share....

What a complete load of bollocks !

If you stand up in front of witnesses and declare your everlasting love for one another and say vows and swap rings then spit . Your married end of . It doesnt matter what the church thinks what matters is what the poeple involved know .

And besides its only a matter of time before evrerything is the same legally as well ! but for the minute i dont think it makes any difference whatsoever !

That's just brought a little tear to my eye.

It was the spitting bit that got you wasn't it?

Really genuinley happy for you .

Don't roll your eyes at me cue-ball

whats the church got to do with marriage?

its where marriage originated, and imo the reason why gays and lesbians still can't get married

sometimes I wonder how you have any friends, you've got the emotional maturity of a 12 year old kid..

congrats helen

aboriginals get married - they don't read the bible?

its not the same though is it, the church is where marriage originated

don't be such a wazzock.
congrats BOB hope you both be happy long time

From Wikipedia:

"A marriage is a relationship between or among individuals, usually recognized by civil authority and/or bound by the religious beliefs of the participants. A married couple can be called each other's spouse, and spousal is used as a legal term for the marital relation. A Royal married couple are consorts. The fact that marriage often has the dual nature of a binding legal contract plus a moral promise, can make it difficult to characterize.

In one form or another, marriage is found in virtually every society. The very oldest records that refer to it speak of it as an established custom. Despite attempts by anthropologists to trace its origin (and test the hypothesis of primitive promiscuity), evidence is lacking."

congratulations

Congratulations!

It doesnt matter who or what you are, if you love someone and want to commit to the person you love a civil partnership or marriage is the best thing in the world.

I hope you both find your shangri-la!
