That's right. It's not legit to see marriage as a romantic contract agreement with exception clauses. Deep down, that's not what men and women really want.

No-fault divorce means that marriage barely means anything, especially if God's not a part of it. It's like super-dating. It's just harder to break up becuase you have to go to court. But in many places, you have to do that even if you're just living together.

Truth. Marriage is not permanent in our culture. "A diamond is forever, but this is for the next 4.5 years."

No, it really isn't. Wanting commitment means it also being required, which can hardly be done if the state will issue a clean slate and half your income if she crys in court, and not even convincingly. Someone should author a prenuptial agreement template that binds the two to the old, permanent version of marriage and prevents no-fault from even being an option.
