    If you don't want to get divorced, then don't get divorced.

    Don't tell me what to do with my life.

        So much for liberty and and the supposedly conservative value of minimizing government interference in things they have no business controlling.

        You're actually in favour of increasing the power those cunts have over my life?

          1. It’s a political nonstarter. It goes nowhere. No chance of succeeding.

          2. it actually damages the party. The blowback of this position drives more voters against the party, including some republicans.

          3. Even if by some chance you managed to succeed to get it through, the result will not be what you think it is. It will just result in couples forming even looser attachments.

          This horse has left the barn and to pursue these policies at this point is utter stupidity

            Expecting people to live in misery because they can't decide which one is to blame probably isn't a big vote-winner.

              And I personally believe that marriage has been damaged and divorces are too easy, and that has had a huge negative effect on society. But I also believe Vox isn’t completely wrong on this one, either.

                Personal relationships including marriage, is a state of mind between two people.

                Pseudo-conservative and other sway backed busybodies claiming religious privilege should keep their God-damned noses out of people’s private lives.

                  Opponents of gay marriage have for quite some time used the argument that 'marriage isn't something the government should get involved with', and that it's primarily a religious undertaking.

                  Apparently, this is no longer the case.

                    If that was true there would be no headlines about this.

                    Marriage is something defined by and maintained by the state. Like anything else the majority elects legislators to deal with it.

                    And it is not something that was done to stick the government's nose into people's business. Marriage is something that is desirable for the state. Stable relationships and children are important to the state. This is an institution worth protecting.

                    Marriage also has a religious tradition that is important to many and non-religious people should keep their God-damned noses out of it.

                          See how well the idea is being received here? I’m sure it will be a big winner in the general public, though.

                          That was sarcasm, btw.

                              I dunno.

                              Are we banning divorce? Nope, didn't think so. Just contemplating making it harder than changing your socks.

                                Those weren't no-fault divorces. They just got tired of having to listen to him read the Bible to them for 4 hours every night.

                                  Just charge a nominal filing fee that is slightly more expensive than a typical new pair of socks from Target and already you would make it harder than changing your socks. There really is no reason to go the extreme of government overreach like outlawing "no fault" divorce to achieve your rather modest stated goal of making it harder than changing your socks.

                                  But, really, as a freedom loving American, I would much rather the state stays out of the marriage thing entirely.

                                      I wasn’t aware that you believe you entered into a matrimonial relationship with TNCR. In your mind a covenant of sorts. Rather odd.

                                      My posts on this topic obviously trigger you. Get used to it. They will continue in that same vein of impunity and impiety so long as cullions such as yourself continue lurching around.

                                          This place has a lot in common with a marriage.

                                          At least, I think it's fair to say that a number of posters here belong in an Institution.
