Marriage will soon disappear, sooner here because America is in fact the future of the world. Child-bearing will also be a thing of the past. Babies will be created in gov't labs and reared in gov't nurseries. And they'll all look the same and get standard gov't education. Happening right before our eyes.

Sounds like it's going to be a brave new world.

I know it may seem like marriage will someday no longer exist, but I don't think that will ever happen to a large extent. There is still something very appealing about marriage to most people, even those that have been divorced one or more times, and it makes people either long for it and, thus, try to find a partner and work to establish a good marital relationship, or want to try again even if they've been through a miserable divorce.

And I see that in non-religious people as well, not just in those who are religious. And I understand that very well, and I don't think marriage will ever really cease to exist.
