A thousand years ago there was no religion in marriage, it was only recently taken over by religions.

where to begin, reminiscent of many atheists on the forum who cannot substantiate
their own claims with anything other than vitriol.

No, it is really the agenda of religion to control populations and this is just another sick example of it. Religion should have ZERO to say about whether a woman and a man stay together or not. Or a man and a man. Or a woman and a woman. These kind of relationships should have NO control by religions. These kind of things, including abortion, divorce, marr ...[text shortened]... didn't like the arrangement they skipped town. No religious control which is how it should be.
And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.
And Adam said:
“This is now bone of my bones
And flesh of my flesh;
She shall be called Woman,
Because she was taken out of Man.”
Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
(Genesis 2:21-24 NKJV)
The fact that God is left out of so many marriages today could be the cause of so many failed marriages. It is the governments of the world that have the agenda of controlling the populations. Governments make people pay for marriage licenses and also pay for government courts, lawyers, and Judges to get divorces. Most religions wish only for happy marriages. Governments make more money through divorces. Who ever heard of anyone donating money to a religion for a divorce? That is not the normal routine. 😏
HalleluYah !!! Praise the Lord!!

Originally posted by sonhouseUm, while I agree that marriage was probably not originally a religious idea, It was certainly co-opted
Another fairy tale. There was no church involvement in marriage till a few hundred years ago.
by religions early on and religions have claimed jurisdiction of marriages (as a means of controlling sex,
and thus people) for thousands and not hundreds of years.
This doesn't in any way diminish the fact that modern day marriage should be defined by or dictated by
a religion.
But it's just not true that churches were not involved in marriages until a few hundred years ago.

This is true, however, the Holy Bible, written after the fact, does record that the first marriage was between Adam and his wife Eve in Genesis chapter 2.
No other historical book gives such detail about the first marriage.

Originally posted by RJHindsit is impossible to shows contempt for a true god. one can only blaspheme against an invented god. jesus is a false prophet, it's irrelevant what he says.

They are all wrong, too.
