As I said above, you don't need a holy man to get married, but you do need a license.     How can people be so dumb?  Are they not married? Did they forget the license? the blood tests etc...   When the religious person is performing the ceremony, they are doing both a civil marriage and a religious marriage. ...more

A Sharp.  Are you married?  marriage is not inhernelty a religious issue, its a legal contract between two people.     You can get married without a religious leader, but you can't get married without a license, issued by the government.  You can say you're married in the eyes of God or whatever, but if you don't h...more

LOM  while I don't disagree with your idea to save a few bucks. But your numbers add up to  about  1 Billion dollars, not 1 Trillion dollars  you're off a factor of 1000.    So unfortunately there really isn't enough savings there to do more than spit on a house fire.   Sorry, but we need to look at the "reven...more

Obese Feline;   I'd be obliged if you would give the current President of the United States of America a little more respect than to refer to him with your derisive nick names.   It's your offhanded offensive attitude that actually weakens your arguments, and makes it easier to disregard your opinions.   No...more
