Default OT - In Defense of Religious Marriage

Here is a proposed Constitutional
Amendment codifying marriage entirely on biblical
principles:


Far be it for me to enter in a political-jabbing thread but:

A. Marriage in the United States shall consist of a
union between one man and one or more women. (Gen
29:17-28; II Sam 3:2-5)

B. Marriage shall not impede a man's right to take
concubines in addition to his wife or wives. (II Sam
5:13; I Kings 11:3; II Chron 11:21)


Them Hebrews knew how to have fun.

E. Since marriage is for life, neither this
Constitution nor the constitution of any State, nor
any state or federal law, shall be construed to permit
divorce. (Deut 22:19; Mark 10:9)


Somewhere else in the Bible it says that Moses had to create a law for
divorce anyways, "because humans are too stubborn" (or something like that).
Plus all the other stuff that you skipped over in the New Testament, which
corrects a lot of things in the Old. And, of course, since you're trying to
make a point by using a well-accepted text, I wouldn't be suprised if the
above (some snipped) are all you could find, no matter how out of context.

Think about it! Does this sound like the America that you want to live

in?

Obviously your post is one of extremism that can never happen, for instance
one of the founding principles for instance is against descrimination by
race or religion.
