What five key components of marriage do you value?
Choose your top five ingredients to a successful marriage (example: love, honesty, etc.) in order of importance.
Feel free to add if you're married/how long.What five key components of marriage do you value?
Communication
Loyalty
Trust
Compatibility
LoveWhat five key components of marriage do you value?
I've only been married to my hubby for 10 months, actually our annyversary is exacly 2 months from today .. Weird. We've been together for 7 years and I think its important to have
Trust
Unconditional love
Laughter
Compromise
Support
Understanding of ones choices
Communication
In my our case, getting along with the inlaws
Staying grounded and down to earth
Romantic night and getaways
Snowboarding %26amp; surfing
Looking forward to growing old together
Keeping things exciding
Loyalty
Honesty ............
Sorry I went all out
Awesome question!!
My top five:
1. Love.......anything can be conquered if you love someone enough
2.Communication.......openly discussing things brings you closer and helps you understand the person more
3. Trust.........If you trust your spouse, you can avoid silly, immature bickering and worrying about who he/she is talking to.
4. Respect..........If you respect your spouse, they feel valued which is very important in any relationship but especially marriage
5. Honesty.........If you always strive for honesty in your marriage, everything else falls in place......the trust, communication, respect all happen as a result of honesty.
I believe the key component is love..........';love conquers all'; is the most true cliche' I've ever heard.
Married 11 years, together for 15 years.
Trust - this is your foundation. Without it, nothing will stand up to the marriage.
Love - you will go through phases of being madly in love or just loving the person you married. Accept that this does not mean something is wrong. It just happens in time, but the love doesn't die, it just phases in and out.
Communication - this is a tough one. Men tend to internalize and women tend to vocalize. We use a calendar to write down our schedules. It keeps the communication open, even when we aren't speaking to each other (not because we are mad).
Values - you need the same values, especially when it comes to parenting. If you aren't on the same page, this will create conflict.
Compromise - you are not always going to agree on everything. There will come a time when you must agree to disagree, but then let it go. Don't hold grudges and don't go to bed mad. Make a compromise just to end the argument. You don't want to end up in divorce court.
Shared interests
Same sense of humor
Respect (this goes along with TRUST for me. I know that my husband trusts me and I trust him- because of the respect we have for each other)
Communication (this includes honesty, for me)
Conditional Love ( and yes- I said *conditional*. We both know that love is fragile. Cheating/lying/harming/backstabbing/emot鈥?hurting each other or the children would cause our love to disappear, I'm sure. We love each other for the people we are. I fully understand that if I made a terrible mistake that may rip it away (or if he did). I think that since we are both very realistic about love that it makes us stronger.
Open-mindedness
*I know that's 6, but I really needed to add the last one. :)
Together for 8 years.
Edit: one more- sexual compatibility. I would put this in my top five and move humor down here.
Love
Trust
Honesty
Respect
Communication
I have only been married for 5 months but we have been together for about 4 years and it is my second marriage. I listed it in this order bc of course to me love is the most important thing, without it you have none of the other, A relationship has to have trust and honesty. and you have to respect one another. But without communication none of this is possible so maybe I should rearrange them!
Married 10 years to one incredible man.
Honesty-you must always have this.
Trust-you can't have this if you don't have the first.
Understanding-No one is always at their best.
Loyalty-You have to devote yourself to the other.
Faith-Helps you through the bad times keeps you together in the good times.
1. Similar tastes in music, tv, etc
2. Similar wants and goals
3. Similar intellect...
4. Good sense of humour
5. At least one person can cook, at least one is willing to clean
My first marriage was not going well, and he died (not murder I swear)
I remarried 5 years later and have been married 4 years..
Love (obviously)
Honest Communication

How can I get marriage outlawed or at least not have anything to do with the government?
It's disgusting that people get these government benefits, but me, a hard working man has to continue to be a slave to this society. I feel that marriage should have nothing to do with the government, since that's the way Americas forefathers intended it in the first place.How can I get marriage outlawed or at least not have anything to do with the government?
I agree, but its not really the government. it the church and the religious leaders that are so short sited they can not believe in anything else but what is in the bible.
if I marry my partner the world will not fall a part. I just do not see my self as that important.
I agree with what Pres- elect Obama said, ';the Constitution should expand rights and freedoms not take them away.How can I get marriage outlawed or at least not have anything to do with the government?
I'm mad that I'm paying taxes that help these chodes that are married and my partner and I don't/won't get anything.
You're fighting a losing battle...couple will always 'find' each other...and commit to each other...and it 'will' be called marriage...regardless of whether 'society approves' or not... Love WILL find a way... Straights who suffer 'self righteous indignation' based upon their 'version' of morality should 'grow up' and 'get over it'...life AND love WILL go on...whether they 'approve' of it or not...
I don't understand any part of your question or your irate ranting.
What government benefits? You seem unaware that you have benefits.
How are you a slave to society?
Explain how/why you believe our forefathers intended marriage and government to be unrelated?
Do you realize that our Constitution does not mention ';separation of church and state';?
Now, what is it you are really trying to ask?
my personal opinion, no matter what people say the government has never had the right to say who can marry and who can't. here's what you do if you want to get married. have a ceremony with friends and family, buy two rings and say your vows, document it, and change your names to match. you don't have to go through the ***** court systems for that and afterwords you'll be married.
I don't understand your being ';a slave to this society';. It is my experience that people are slaves to their shortcomings or lack of ambition or lack of imagination. You may want to look into ways that are more suited to your ability's or talents that will be more beneficial to you while you work inside the system. Look at the society as a game that everyone has the ability to learn and win at.
The marriage thing, I couldn't agree more.
I agree. As a single hetero woman I find it unfair that married people get tax breaks, etc., however, the reason those benefits are there is so that more people will get married, and contribute to this capitalist society. If the country was full of single, childless people like us, eventually the economy, social services systems, early education programs, etc, would crumble, and the entire... ';feel'; of the nation would change from rearing children, to a somewhat hedonistic purpose of self sufficiency. Gah, my suggestion to you is to just get used to it pal.

How do you draw marriage lines on a family tree when two siblings married two siblings in the same family?
I mean, my dad and his brother married my mom and my aunt (who are also sisters). How do I draw the marriage lines for that? Does anyone have an example? I just can't find a way to do it without crossing the lines together...How do you draw marriage lines on a family tree when two siblings married two siblings in the same family?
This is the only way I can think to do it:
http://i50.tinypic.com/2ng5umq.jpgHow do you draw marriage lines on a family tree when two siblings married two siblings in the same family?
See figures 40 %26amp; 41--about halfway down the page--at http://www.genetic-genealogy.co.uk/Toc11鈥?/a>
As in my grandmother's family, brothers %26amp; sisters of one family who marry brothers %26amp; sisters of another family create the term ';double first cousins'; for their children. This is because they share all the same grandparents.
I'm in agreeance with the others that Ashley gives the clearest example to best show this unique relationship.
I too have this situation with my brother and my sister marrying a sister and brother of the same family
However, when doing a family chart (on PAF or FTM) you can only show the perspective of one family (with the spouse listed) or one couple, but not both sets.
Hmm, all the time I spent studying kinship and this scenario never even occurred to me. I suppose you would probably just need to label them appropriately. For example, instead of labeling your uncle as your mother's sister's husband (MZH), you should label him as your father's brother (FB) and then not include him on your father's side of the kinship chart (or vice versa for your aunt). An interesting question indeed. I hope this helps.
Ashley's answer is brilliant, clear and simple. She deserves the 10 points.
We don't usually draw family trees, though. We enter our data into a genealogy program and let it print pedigree charts, descendnacy lists or family group sheets.
You can develop your Family tree in exciting way. below site provide some exclusive features can help to u develop good family tree.
I have this in my ancestry.com tree, but you can only view a pedigree chart for one person so you would not see them both in the same chart (I think).
Good job Ashley. That drawing really simplified what could have been a complex relationship to try to diagram.

Civil marriage before catholic marriage. How does this work? ?
My fiance are having a catholic ceremony in May. Our reasoning for the catholic ceremony is really for our family and we our both catholic although I am not really a practicing catholic. I just lost my job and we need to get married ASAP so I can get on his insurance. So we were just going to go to the courthouse for a civil marriage and then still have our catholic service. How does this work? Will the church find out if we have a civil service first? Civil marriage before catholic marriage. How does this work? ?
Yes, the church will find out when they tell you to get a marriage license, and you already have one that is signed and says you are married.
If you don't live together and don't have sex in between the time of your civil marriage and your Catholic wedding, it should be no big deal. Just TELL THE PRIEST -- don't try to hide it.
Also, you don't have to get married ASAP to get on his insurance -- you can do COBRA until the wedding. U.S. employers are required by law to offer it to you. And you could also get private insurance -- call your insurance rep for information. Civil marriage before catholic marriage. How does this work? ?
I don't know if it has changed but the rule used to be you could still get married in the Catholic church, but not have the Mass as part of the ceremony. You would have to have a marriage license issued for the priest to sign unless you had already had a civil marriage, so yes, they will find out. Go and talk to your priest or someone at the diocesan level. They would be in the best position to tell you the current church position
1. I'm a little confused. Are you marrying this guy for the insurance.. I hope that's not the only reason you guys are doing this.
2. If your not a practicing catholic, what do you care if the church finds out? When you go to get married at the church, just give them a copy of your marriage certificate. Its no big deal. My parents did that back in the 60's. Believe me, the church was much more strict about it then then they are now.
it doesnt matter..... im married by the civil and we're getting married by the church too. it doesnt matter if u do that first. you can still get married by the church. in other countries like Mex. ppl get married by the civil first and than church. its perfectly fine.
good luck and congratx = )
Sounds like a silly reason to hurry up and get married; unless you have something serious going on and you need the insurance. Most companies offer insurance within 60-90 days..so hold off and get married in the church.
Yes they will unless they have already done the marriage investigation.
They MAY still marry you, so check first.
Good luck to you and congratulations on your pending Catholic Marriage.
that isnt a problem at all . you can get married legally first , then at the church . from where i am from that is the only they do it .
Marry for love, not insurance....
YES ,,,PEACE

How do the sacrifices of a husband and wife differ from those of pretenders to marriage?
Marriage is a tough decision for actual mating couples in the 21st century. Cohabitation offers an immediate attraction. Why do mating couples think long and hard about committing themselves for better or for worse?
In contrast, as soon as a liberal judge imposes a newly invented ';marriage,'; hundreds of pretenders jump at the chance to do some play-acting. Why do they act in such haste? How do the sacrifices of a husband and wife differ from those of pretenders to marriage?
A man and woman contemplating real marriage have a big decision. Will they give up every other sexually attractive partner for life? Will they take the risk of bearing children, who may be damaged or cost the woman her life? Will they sacrifice their freewheeling lifestyles for the strictures of family? Will they burden themselves for decades with personal and financial responsibilities for children? It takes real love to say yes to God's call to marriage, and great discernment to recognize that a partner may not be up to the noble vocation of marriage.
Those jumping at pretend marriage have nothing to lose. They can gain legitimacy for their sexual immorality, and maybe some tax breaks. As homosexual Andrew Sullivan admits, homosexual men don't seriously intend to give up sleeping with other men; that's the big reason for choosing homosexuality. Since no children will issue from homosexual sex-play, that is not an issue at all. No risk of injury in pregnancy, no risk of a damaged child, no risk of decades of responsibility.
No, there is simply no comparison.
How do the sacrifices of a husband and wife differ from those of pretenders to marriage?
There is no real marriage as God in tented if not between a husband and a wife. As you said marriage means sacrifices for that is what real love means and not carnal attraction only. Cohabitation is no marriage.
You take some time before taking the step to marry so as to get used
to each others character. It doesn't mean that they agree with everything. They learn to give way to others so that their bondage will remain even when faced with difficulties. Cohabitation or other forms have no bonds and so the living together could easily be broken.
So they have reason why others don't agree with any other ';marriage';.
When believing Christians enter into the covenant of marriage, many understand that it's not just a simple matter of a ';contract'; between man and woman but also includes God. (Everyone who professes to be in Christ SHOULD know and understand the principles of the marriage covenant and covenant with God.) Breaking a contract with another human being is never good but breaking covenant with God is another matter all together.
The pretenders act in haste because they are acting on selfish emotions that don't have a lot to do with the will of God. Honestly, anyone who calls marriage anything other than what God established in Genesis is ';play-acting'; anyway no matter what length of time they take to think about it/plan/what have you.

Because the phrases ';liberal judge'; and ';newly invented 'marriage,'; I take it you are referring to the so-called same-sex marriage ruling.
This is not an ';anti-homosexual comment'; but reflecting on God's standard of marriage which HE invented and put into action with Adam and Eve. One either believes His word or not. Personally, I don't condone homosexuality or bisexuality but if couples want to unite, I side with God on what constitutes marriage: I believe they should refer to same-sex unions as partnership agreements.

I'm gonna take a stab in the dark and guess you're talking about gay marriage. I will admit as a Christian I had a problem with the idea of gay marriage, but since I have opened my eyes I have seen many same sex couples who are truly committed to eachother and just want what we all want..to find a soulmate to spend their life with.
They do not choose to be who they are they just are. If the Lord didn't want them to be, they wouldn't be. Who am I, or you, to tell them they have to live with no rights?
Do you honestly believe they go into marriage without the same questions and trepidations we all feel? I don't.
For many, they are excited about the opportunity to finally legalize the commitment that they have had for years. They probably would have done so years before, had it been legal, so they're not necessarily rushing into anything. Your question is like asking why black people rushed to the universities post-segregation in the US, or why women rushed to the voting booths when they were finally granted the legal right to do so. Why do you feel the need to post your hatred so regularly?
No relationship arrangement is play acting. It's what's right for others at the time, and it's none of your business. You'll spend most of your life miserable if you try to decide how others should live.
It's funny how few people who rag on ';liberal judges'; have earned a bacherlor's, let alone a degree as challenging as a JD.
Get over it - homosexual couples marry for the same reasons as heterosexual couples........love.

Is it customary to add new spouse to house deed after marriage?
I have a house in my own name and my fiancee wants her name to be added to the deed right after we get married. Is it customary to add a spouse to the house deed after marriage, and if so how long after the wedding?Is it customary to add new spouse to house deed after marriage?
Much like prenuptial agreements, marital assets can be a tricky conversation. I would consider making a compromise- in the event that you are happily married after 5 years, you will agree to reopen a discussion for adding her to the deed. If she owned a house with significant equity, would she be so willing to put it at risk on a new marriage?Is it customary to add new spouse to house deed after marriage?
See a lawyer about how marriage affects issues with home ownership. I recommend this to all couples who have property. Find out how marriage affects your ownership. In some cases, putting a property into trust may be a wise choice.
In my state, whether her name is on the deed or not, she automatically has a 50% ownership in the primary marital home. That is the law. However, if only your name is on the deed and you die leaving a substantial mortgage and she can't afford to pay the mortgage and can't sell the home, she can let the bank have the house and it will not affect her credit rating. However, for most people, banks require a life insurance policy to pay off the mortgage now, so I don't really see a benefit to this thinking.
My guy's home is paid for. He will be adding me to the deed in January (we plan to marry this year). The county courthouse says it's only a $5 fee to change my name to married name after we are married.
If you mean to ask if it's a legal requirement, it depends on what state you live in. In some states, you don't have to add the spouse for the spouse to have a property interest if you are married. In other states, you do.
If you're asking whether she'll be pissed if you don't add her, I think it's safe to assume that it would be customary for your new wife to get mad and distrustful... especially for someone who asks prior to marriage.
No, it is not. If your fiancee insist, then you and her go to the mortgage company, resign the papers as a married couple then put her name on the deed. You do not get something for nothing any where I have been.
BTW, if you are serious, you had better get a pre-nup and have her sign that. Something smells here and it is not the fish.
You should do what you feel is right. My DH have been married a year and a half and I am not on the deed to our home and I dont care that Im not....we have plenty of trust and therefore it doesnt matter to me whos name is on what.
no, it is not customary. It is not a marital asset if you marry either.
No, It's your house not hers. Everything you buy after theis is half hers.
BEWARE She is already gold digging!!!
THAT'S UP TO YOU. I WOULDN'T BECAUSE I'VE SEEN TOO MANY PEOPLE WORK HARD FOR SOMETHING, GET MARRIED AND THAT PERSON WALK OFF FROM IT. BUT IT'S TOTALLY UP TO YOU.
It will complicate things if you get a divorce !!
Don't worry about it for now !!!

What does dreaming of marriage mean if everything is perfect?
I dreamed that I was getting married to my fiancee'. Everything in the service was beautiful and how it should be. Our daughter was older and everything. Nothing was wrong with the service. The only strange thing was my father whom I am very close with who is deceased was there. There were no tensions between us or anything.
I have heard that dreaming of marriage means a death? But what type of death? One inside my immediate, one that I knew about, or one that will come soon?What does dreaming of marriage mean if everything is perfect?
Often dreams of marriage have to do with uniting your inner feminine and masculine sides. It is not about death. In order to be balanced, we need to honor both the masculine and feminine.
SBWhat does dreaming of marriage mean if everything is perfect?
There Have Been stories told that the dearly departed can contact us in our sleep, realistically everybody has had a dream where one of our relatives or friends have contacted us. the problem is though at least 95% of us cannot remember these dreams whether they are too powerful for our minds or our memory is not perfected.
Personally I Don't believe that Marriage Means Death, that's a stupid superstition, Marriage For me means a new beginning. but then again people may believe that the deceased show up in your marriage dream to maybe contact you that your new life will begin (afterlife). but there has been no proper evidence of this
Since you have a fiancee' I assume that means you plan to marry him. It is natural to dream that your father attends the wedding. This just means you wish your father was here to share in your joy, and see your daughter grow up, etc.
God bless you!

How would you feel about someone who broke up your marriage?
Here we have the Mormon church complaining because gays are actually bitter that the Mormon Church paid $25 million (tax exempt) to bust up their marriages with poop position hate. They want gays to be ';civil'; about having their marriages destroyed. Just out of curiosity, if a bunch of people in a church you never gave a damn about busted up your marriage with tax exempt money, how happy would you be? Extremely happy? Or perhaps a bit angry? Lets say you are not even gay for the sake of argument, just tell us how you would feel.How would you feel about someone who broke up your marriage?
I had a church break up my marriage... in a way. Having them tell my wife on a daily basis how I was evil incarnate for being an Atheist... how I was obviously a Satanist, how I'd kill babies if I could, how I wanted to kill Jesus again, how I was ';infecting'; her with evil spirits, casting evil spells on her, how I was really Satan in disguise trying to get her to sin... that broke up my marriage.
All lies... and no different to the lies the Mormon Church spread in it's ILLEGAL campaign to get Gay Marriage outlawed. Illegal, because as a Tax-Exempt Religion, they are not allowed to do ANY political campaigning or endorsing at all...
Bitter? I'd be bitter if an organisation blatently broke the law to f*ck up my marriage...How would you feel about someone who broke up your marriage?
1. These marriages were arguably never legal. The supreme court took action where it was unauthorized to do so.
#2. Where is the Mormon Church complaining about anything other than the violence, vandalism, and acts of terrorism against it???
#3. The church paid less than $3,000. California voters who were also LDS independantly contributed around $20,000,000
#4. Prop 8 had nothing to do with hate.
#5. There's no ';busting up'; of marriages. It's been stated that homosexual marriages that had already taken place will not be revoked. The LDS church is not fighting this point.
Every single claim you made is false. You're not looking very reliable here.
COMMON LAW MARRIAGE, living in sin has been around for years and they think that they must marry or forever be unhappy. I have livied in sin before, whats wrong with that, Gays marry on occasion or haven't you heard Rosie o donald is married and so is other celebrities there are ways ot get married by a gay minister. Nothing stopped that halfman/ half women from getting pregnant.
Marriages are broken up every day. The divorce courts never stand empty. Adultery is still one of the leading reasons people get divorced. I have never seen any happy faces leaving the Court room after a divorce. Divorces are expensive but it is now the norm...
Adultery is a religious concept right??????
Far too many people end up with broken relationships because of values, morals, and ethics. It is the principal of the thing.
Well gay marriage to me sounds like a bit of an oxymoron, so I don't think I feel too bitter about it. Thanks for asking though.
I hear alot of gay people complaining, however, I think most of the people who voted against said marriages are grateful.
Poop position hate. That's awesome! I love it. I'm gonna use that.
I agree 100%. I think the whole thing moved us back a step. It was a step backwards in our evolving humanity.
To the homophobic cavemen (and women): Boooooo!!
The advantage of delaying marriage and child-bearing, ideally, is to get established financially. Another advantage is to allow time for personal growth without the responsibility of a relationship.

Yeah, or how would child molesters feel if some corrupt judges legalized pedophilia, then the voters broke up THEIR relationships?
';How would you feel about someone who broke up your marriage?';
It looks like a marriage that never should have been if it could be broken up by someone else.
It would bother me if they broke up my marriage but it wouldn't bother me at all if they broke up a gay marriage
Where can I hire some of them?

What are your views on waiting till marriage to have sex?
I think waiting for marriage to have sex is a valid and reasonable choice, but abstinence shouldn't be shoved down people's throats.
How is it ';moral'; to wait until marriage to have sex and ';immoral'; to have sex with someone you care for or even love when not married? Why can't both be considered pure of intent? I think it's better to have strong morals about sex meaning something more than just carnal pleasure. And don't confuse ';promiscuity'; with ';monogamy';. Sort of like having one piece of cake and eating the whole thing by yourself.
Thoughts?What are your views on waiting till marriage to have sex?
I think its a really stupid idea.
Sex is powerful physically, emotionally and even spirituality. It will teach you a lot about yourself, your partner, your compatibility together, and it has a huge impact on your relationship. When your about to commit yourself to someone for life, it is a Terrible idea to not know if you are 100% compatible. Sex / love making are both essential for a long term healthy relationship. Its not shallow - its reality. Each person has different sexual needs, and it happens to A LOT of couples where they are not sexually compatible and it causes strain and tension on the relationship.
Now, dont get me wrong. I do not support sleeping around. Like I said, sex is a powerful thing. You shouldn't be sleeping with every boyfriend you have or passing yourself out like a platter. Sex should be saved for someone you trust, have deep feelings for, and are in a long term relationship with.
Sex is also a RISKY thing. So you Have to be Sexually Educated. Always use 2 form of birth control, and make sure you and your partner dont have any STDs. Not all STDs have visible symptoms.
I had sex before marriage. So did my husband. Our honeymoon night was still an amazing experience. Neither of us have Any regrets.
But it is a personal choice. No one should do anything they dont feel comfortable with.What are your views on waiting till marriage to have sex?
Both are a choice; a personal choice and an individual choice - there is no right thing to do and no wrong thing to do.
I have nothing against people waiting until marriage, I think that shows tremendous discipline and props to them, but I also have nothing against pre-marital sex, I'm not going to judge someone on something that has nothing to do with me - I'm not a virgin and I'm not married, and I don't regret it and no one else has the right to judge me about that - just like I haven't the right to judge them.
Till marriage, although nice, most people don't do it since some only get married by the time they're 30.
I think it's ok after you've reached 16-18 year mark and know how to keep yourself safe but in allseriousness with the surveys that say kids have had sex at 14 and even younger is not moral. I mean you're a kid, and no matter how mature you act or how 'slutty' you dress you'll still be a kid, and having sex just opens up a pandora's box that shouldn't be opened.
I think its up to the individual.
I HATE hearing people call it ';stupid';. Or when people say they ';don't believe in it.'; It's obviously not stupid to everyone, some people just have different values and morals. But it's also wrong to call people stupid for doing it before marriage, because not everyone wants to wait or get married either. And how can you not believe in it? It exists! It's there. Always will be, so you have to believe in it. It just might not be the right path for you.
I think whatever you want to do is just fine, as long as you don't belittle me for my choices.
well i respect people who want to wait and don't judge them but i personally couldn't ha ha. i have been in a good relationship with the same man for over 8 years we have 2 children and another on the way. we are happy the way we are without marriage ruining our happy relationship. our children are christened but we are not regular church attenders so not going to drill it into the kids. they can decide for them selves when they r older.
I mean is it the who religious thing that u wanna wait till marriage or just the whole make the love stronger reason?.
I agree with you. I view it as a valid option, but quite frankly IMPOSSIBLE to shove down ANYONE'S throat. Back when it was morally instated people were getting married at 14, not exactly a long wait. It's not realistic to expect teenagers to wait unless they themselves decide that's what they want to do. I started having sex with my still current boyfriend over 3 years ago when I was still 16. Looking back on it we wished we would have waited, but not because we were young.
I think it is a choice, just like not waiting. If a person wants to wait, then that is their choice. I did not make that choice and I am happy. Whatever makes you happy. Then again, if you choose to have sex, you need to be old enough to fully handle the consequences.
well, it's 100% their choice %26amp; doesn't affect me in any way, so i have nothing against.
personally, i didn't wait, but again, 100% my choice, and doesn't affect anyone in any way.
i think that it is a good thing to do but i dont believe that we should hate the people who dont choose to do it. and for shoving abstinece down throats i dont believe in that either. i feel the schools should teach safe sex not just abstinance.
I really don't care.
I mean if you can wait until marriage well more power to you.
Some people do and some people don't.
I respect people who wait, but only if they respect those of us that don't.
I think people who choose it are very patient!
I dont have anything against them, but celibacy isnt really for me..
=P
I think it's great that some people choose to wait...i didn't, but I don't regret it either.
When it comes to other people, it's their choice. It's not my place to pass judgement, and I'd never tell someone their decision was 'right' or 'wrong' (I've had the 'you're so immoral' speech from a few friends). The right choice for me was not waiting. I became sexually active at 16, and wouldn't change a thing!
1) I wouldn't ever be left thinking I'd 'missed out', and contemplating an affair during my midlife crisis.
2) Would I buy a pair of shoes without trying them on?
3) To me sex is a big part of a romantic relationship. What if I found out me and my partner weren't compatible AFTER the ring was on my finger? Horror..
4) I can't imagine sleeping with only one person my entire life
5) I want to enjoy my youth while I'm young..
6) For me, marriage would be because I'm actually ready to settle down and spend my LIFE with that one person. Not just because I want to have sex.
7) It wouldn't leave me disappointed and thinking ';...That's it?'; on my wedding night, after waiting so many years for it.
8) Contraception has never been better, and I make the most of it!
9) I probably won't get married until I'm 25+, so that's a long time to wait for something as natural as sex.
10) I don't believe having sex before marriage is immoral in the slightest. For all of the reasons above, and the big one; it's not hurting anyone else. That to me is the definition of ';wrong';, if it hurts another person. I'm not religious, but consider myself to have good morals. They might not be everyone's idea of ';good'; ones (the sex, drinking, experimenting with soft drugs), but they work for me.
I knew the person I lost my virginity wasn't ';The One';, but I really enjoyed it. I'd never take it back.
I think it's unnecessary, but I do support those who do it. If anything, maybe it will help stop the spread of STI's a little bit. And I respect their self control.
But I didn't wait, and I don't think there's anything wrong with not waiting. I love my boyfriend very much, and think we'll get married someday. But if not, I don't mind losing my virginity to him, because I'll always look back and know that, at least for a few years, he was worth it.
I also hate that they push abstinence on kids so much. Teaching sex ed that way will NEVER be a good thing, because teens will never stop having sex.
How is it ';moral'; to wait until marriage to have sex and ';immoral'; to have sex with someone you care for or even love when not married? Why can't both be considered pure of intent? I think it's better to have strong morals about sex meaning something more than just carnal pleasure. And don't confuse ';promiscuity'; with ';monogamy';. Sort of like having one piece of cake and eating the whole thing by yourself.
Thoughts?What are your views on waiting till marriage to have sex?
I think its a really stupid idea.
Sex is powerful physically, emotionally and even spirituality. It will teach you a lot about yourself, your partner, your compatibility together, and it has a huge impact on your relationship. When your about to commit yourself to someone for life, it is a Terrible idea to not know if you are 100% compatible. Sex / love making are both essential for a long term healthy relationship. Its not shallow - its reality. Each person has different sexual needs, and it happens to A LOT of couples where they are not sexually compatible and it causes strain and tension on the relationship.
Now, dont get me wrong. I do not support sleeping around. Like I said, sex is a powerful thing. You shouldn't be sleeping with every boyfriend you have or passing yourself out like a platter. Sex should be saved for someone you trust, have deep feelings for, and are in a long term relationship with.
Sex is also a RISKY thing. So you Have to be Sexually Educated. Always use 2 form of birth control, and make sure you and your partner dont have any STDs. Not all STDs have visible symptoms.
I had sex before marriage. So did my husband. Our honeymoon night was still an amazing experience. Neither of us have Any regrets.
But it is a personal choice. No one should do anything they dont feel comfortable with.What are your views on waiting till marriage to have sex?
Both are a choice; a personal choice and an individual choice - there is no right thing to do and no wrong thing to do.
I have nothing against people waiting until marriage, I think that shows tremendous discipline and props to them, but I also have nothing against pre-marital sex, I'm not going to judge someone on something that has nothing to do with me - I'm not a virgin and I'm not married, and I don't regret it and no one else has the right to judge me about that - just like I haven't the right to judge them.
Till marriage, although nice, most people don't do it since some only get married by the time they're 30.
I think it's ok after you've reached 16-18 year mark and know how to keep yourself safe but in allseriousness with the surveys that say kids have had sex at 14 and even younger is not moral. I mean you're a kid, and no matter how mature you act or how 'slutty' you dress you'll still be a kid, and having sex just opens up a pandora's box that shouldn't be opened.
I think its up to the individual.
I HATE hearing people call it ';stupid';. Or when people say they ';don't believe in it.'; It's obviously not stupid to everyone, some people just have different values and morals. But it's also wrong to call people stupid for doing it before marriage, because not everyone wants to wait or get married either. And how can you not believe in it? It exists! It's there. Always will be, so you have to believe in it. It just might not be the right path for you.
I think whatever you want to do is just fine, as long as you don't belittle me for my choices.
well i respect people who want to wait and don't judge them but i personally couldn't ha ha. i have been in a good relationship with the same man for over 8 years we have 2 children and another on the way. we are happy the way we are without marriage ruining our happy relationship. our children are christened but we are not regular church attenders so not going to drill it into the kids. they can decide for them selves when they r older.
I mean is it the who religious thing that u wanna wait till marriage or just the whole make the love stronger reason?.
I agree with you. I view it as a valid option, but quite frankly IMPOSSIBLE to shove down ANYONE'S throat. Back when it was morally instated people were getting married at 14, not exactly a long wait. It's not realistic to expect teenagers to wait unless they themselves decide that's what they want to do. I started having sex with my still current boyfriend over 3 years ago when I was still 16. Looking back on it we wished we would have waited, but not because we were young.
I think it is a choice, just like not waiting. If a person wants to wait, then that is their choice. I did not make that choice and I am happy. Whatever makes you happy. Then again, if you choose to have sex, you need to be old enough to fully handle the consequences.
well, it's 100% their choice %26amp; doesn't affect me in any way, so i have nothing against.
personally, i didn't wait, but again, 100% my choice, and doesn't affect anyone in any way.
i think that it is a good thing to do but i dont believe that we should hate the people who dont choose to do it. and for shoving abstinece down throats i dont believe in that either. i feel the schools should teach safe sex not just abstinance.
I really don't care.
I mean if you can wait until marriage well more power to you.
Some people do and some people don't.
I respect people who wait, but only if they respect those of us that don't.
I think people who choose it are very patient!
I dont have anything against them, but celibacy isnt really for me..
=P
I think it's great that some people choose to wait...i didn't, but I don't regret it either.
When it comes to other people, it's their choice. It's not my place to pass judgement, and I'd never tell someone their decision was 'right' or 'wrong' (I've had the 'you're so immoral' speech from a few friends). The right choice for me was not waiting. I became sexually active at 16, and wouldn't change a thing!
1) I wouldn't ever be left thinking I'd 'missed out', and contemplating an affair during my midlife crisis.
2) Would I buy a pair of shoes without trying them on?
3) To me sex is a big part of a romantic relationship. What if I found out me and my partner weren't compatible AFTER the ring was on my finger? Horror..
4) I can't imagine sleeping with only one person my entire life
5) I want to enjoy my youth while I'm young..
6) For me, marriage would be because I'm actually ready to settle down and spend my LIFE with that one person. Not just because I want to have sex.
7) It wouldn't leave me disappointed and thinking ';...That's it?'; on my wedding night, after waiting so many years for it.
8) Contraception has never been better, and I make the most of it!
9) I probably won't get married until I'm 25+, so that's a long time to wait for something as natural as sex.
10) I don't believe having sex before marriage is immoral in the slightest. For all of the reasons above, and the big one; it's not hurting anyone else. That to me is the definition of ';wrong';, if it hurts another person. I'm not religious, but consider myself to have good morals.

If same-sex marriage will lead to polygamy, why are polygamous unions recognized in 8 times more countries?
Same-sex marriage is recognized in six countries, and Sweden and Nepal are set to join the batch by 2010.
48 Countries allow polygamy.
So if polygamy is legal in 8 times as many countries as gay marriage, how would gay marriage lead to polygamy?If same-sex marriage will lead to polygamy, why are polygamous unions recognized in 8 times more countries?
*chuckle* They can't hear you, and they never will.
But thanks for trying.If same-sex marriage will lead to polygamy, why are polygamous unions recognized in 8 times more countries?
The countries which allow polygamy are Muslim countries which follow Sharia Law.
Where woman are little more than property.
Where getting a new wife is like buying a new car.
Where selling a used car is more complex than divorcing a wife you no longer like.
Is that what you want?
Where man always get custody of the children?
Where a 16 year old girl is executed for seducing a 53 year old taxi driver? That relationship began when, as they claim the girl who was 13 then, seduced the 50 year old taxi driver.
Where whenever a woman is raped, its the woman's fault?
being married to more then one spouse at the same time is not allowed in most countries.
the countries are also mostly muslim
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygamy#By鈥?/a>
People of the west do not recognize polygamous marriages. They do not even tolerate such unions.
Most of those nations also allow marriage to children of under 15 years old.
Should we also allow that?
Polygamy was a way of life for 10,000 years of recorded history and 200,000 years of ancient history. The church decided to make it a sin only to control people about 1000 years ago. and if you want to gather people and make a ton of money find something common for them to hate. Most of the people who hate polygamy are just jealous.
Polygamy in the US tends to lead toward pedophilia. I think as long as it stays among consenting adults people should be allowed to form whatever family group they want. I personally have no problem with polygamy, polyandry or gay marriage.
Polygamy in this country wouldn't work unless the man was pretty rich. In these economic times how would that play out.
I really don't know why people think same sex marriage would lead to polygamy. Good question. Both are non Christian BTW.
Nice, thanks.
Except it leaves people still wanting to compare these unrelated apples and oranges.
We govern ourselves. We don't allow either. If we allow one, then their is no reason not to allow the other.
Yeah well, that's because gay marriage will allow for...
Uh...
Curse you and your facts!
Not a speck of logic in that...Correlation is NOT causation.

How plausible of a solution is this to the gay marriage debate?
More than likely, it's nothing original.
What if the word ';marriage'; was removed in entirety; no ';marriage'; at all, gay or straight. Instead, all homosexual and heterosexual life-term relationships would have the same rights, just under a different word or phrase (such as ';Civil Union'; or whatever) and the term marriage could be left to the interpretation of the individual/the individuals faith.How plausible of a solution is this to the gay marriage debate?
You're on the right track. Marriage is a civil contract anymore, which may or may not incluede a religious component. So long as both partnership contracts confer the very same rights and responsibilities, I'm coolwiddat.
The only problem would be the squawking when gays and lesbians start referring to their partnerships as marriages. If we leave the term marriage to the interpretation of the individual/individual's faith, then it is inevitable that there will be some outcry. Would that it were not so, alas, it is so.How plausible of a solution is this to the gay marriage debate?
The end game is gays don't want ';marriage';. They want to force their life on others. Let's start with kindergarten, instead of books about princess and prince there will be two prince's. Your church, well they would not only have to allow marriages on property, but also marry them in the churchs faith, and the congrgation would be sued to watch. Photographers and singers who refuse would be sued in court.
Parents who object would be arrested, and banned from voting, or attending their childrens school. CHildren of such parents would be beaten by gangs and allowed by the school. The nurse would refuse to notify the parents, and instead wait while the child suffers in the nursing office until teh parents find out 5 hours later and take the child to the ER themselves where the child is admitted. The first thing the principal will say, is ';YOU CAN't SUE US FOR THIS';.
That's what it's already like in many states.
I agree, but probably not plausible. The term ';marriage'; is deeply ingrained in law.
But if it could be done it's definitely the best solution. I see it this way:
';Marriage'; is religious, so leave marriage up to the religious institution that is holding the ceremony. Government should license ';Civil Unions,'; a secular idea that is simply the joining of two people.
Then, a Church (or any other religious institution) that feels it is wrong for a gay couple to get married can refuse to marry them, but that couple still enjoys the rights of a heterosexual couple under the law and is free to find a different Church that will marry them.
At least you are trying.
Taking away marriage from all is not a good solution.
I went from against the idea of Gay marriage to supporting the idea.
It boils down to civil rights, that's all.
Let churches decide if the want to do the ceremonies or not. That's up to them.
Let people like it or not or not care either way, that's up to them.
People say it will lead to other things.
Maybe it will. We will decide on a case by case basis when it happens.
Nobody has to earn their rights by assuring the rest of us that something else we don't like won't happen.
I don't get why people wanting to have the same rights as everyone else is always interpreted as wanting ';special rights'; or ';shoving their lifestyles into everyones faces.'; Love is love is love... Two people that love one another are no different than any other two people that love eachother... their sex organs shouldn't determine what they legally can or cannot do -- that's unconstitutional.
Because regardless, people want a marriage. It's the historical meaning of the word. Civil Union has no gravitas in world history. There will still be people who are married and people who aren't. That's not going to be good enough.
this is nothing new, it already exists.
the problem is many (most) want to shove their lifestyle into the faces of everyone.
Not a bad idea, I've heard it before.
The problem is trying to convince people that ALL couples deserve the same benefits.
Good luck with that.

What happens when your marriage VISA expiresand you do not have your green card ?
If your marriage VISA runs out before you get your Green Card with conditions how can you travel back to your country of origin or move to another state to attend school or another job. Is that another form and another 500 dollars.What happens when your marriage VISA expiresand you do not have your green card ?
What country is this? If USA, there is no such a thing marriage VISA will be expired! Marriage visa won't expire when your I-485 (adjustment status still pending). You can work with (apply I-765) EAD card and you can renew it every year and also you can travel to your origin country with advance parole documents (I-131 - travel document) and you can move to another state wherever and whenever you want to. However, NOTE that when your I-485 still pending and you move to another state, your case to get a green card will be delayed as well as to your documents will be transferred to your new state and this process takes time!!What happens when your marriage VISA expiresand you do not have your green card ?
come on your married that give the same statue as everyone else you really didnt know this please
I am not sure what your status is. If you have come to the USA under a K-1 visa and have not married within the 90 days, it is time to leave and re-apply with all the attendant fees. You will also have to explain why you did not get married within the allotted time. Good luck with that one.
If you have married and are merely waiting for your GC interview after applying to adjust status, I do not see what your problem is. You are legally present in the country. It is true that you cannot travel out of the country until you get the conditional Green Card, but then you cannot do so once you arrive on a K-1 and before you adjust status. If you anticipated a need to leave the country, you could have applied for advance parole.
You should probably contact an immigration attorney to get the best possible advice.
You are supposed to go back before your visa expires.
What visa?
Your other posts indicate that you are stuck in a namecheck, and your case can not be approved until it completes. Your elected reps, the USCIS phone staff, the officers at the Field Offices etc.. can do --nothing-- for you. You simply have to wait. While your case is pending, you DO have status here, so you do not have to leave.
If you DO want to leave, you should make sure that you have the appropriate travel documents to not abandon your case, and you should make sure that you do not have any issues that would keep you from re-entering the US.
Some namechecks take years. It's a sad fact of life, but there is nothing anyone can do about it.
If you want to move to another state, you can do that. Take the appropriate steps to change your mailing and case address with the USCIS to continue your case. There is no charge for a change of address.
Dude, you are talking a K-3 visa right?
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TRAVEL OUTSIDE THE US if this has expired. If it has they will check this and they will not let you back into the US. This just happened to someone in San Jose that I know. She's still in Vietnam and it will take about a year as they had to start all over again.
Call USCIS but they are wrong about 50% I know I check their stuff frequently. You may need to consult with an immigration attorney and there may be a $1000 fine. They can I am sure send you back if they want to.
Look unless you are an illegal you ahve no rights. Those of us who try to do it the right way are scorned by both Democraps and Republicracks. The US governement has become only a traitors den that worships La Raza on its knees. La Raza means ';The Race'; in Spanish and is the Hispanic equivelant to the KKK or the Nazi party. Their slogan is; ';All to those in the Race, nothing to those outside the race.';
La Raza is the most brazen racist organization in the US today. Just like the KKK or the Nazis La Raza feels its actions are justified and that those who are not part of its racial makeup are sub human. Why Americans are allowing this is beyond me...
The Democrats and Republicans hate the American people and they hate legal immigration they make legal immigration almost impossible and the USCIS office in San Jose California is staffed almost exclusively with Mexican illegals that were given Shamnesty under Reagan. They let you know that if they get a chacne that they wil make your life hell. Meanwhile outside todays batch of freeloading illegals are cavorting literally right around parked ICE cars and staff.
Good luck to you.

How does a courthouse marriage work? What is the process like? Do people dress up for it?
My fiance and I are planning to get married, and don't have much money. We have been contemplating a courthouse marriage, and were wondering what all takes place, how it works, etc. Do people typically wear a nice suit and dress? Street clothes? Do you need to bring a witness? Do people bring in a pastor or priest? I've seen it on television before, but was wondering how it all goes down in real life. Has anyone been through this? What was it like?How does a courthouse marriage work? What is the process like? Do people dress up for it?
Go online and see what the court house offers. At ours it has video of the service. It looks and is professional. A class act. You can even has a option to show the ceremony live streaming for your out of town guests. You dress up in your best duds. You don't need a witness because they will supply one. They have an official to marry you.
Congratulations on your loving bond together. May it last forever.How does a courthouse marriage work? What is the process like? Do people dress up for it?
well there is not much to it. from what i understand there are a couple of choices. you have the walk in sign and DONE. or you can have a 5minute wedding which is more i do yes i do too kind of thing. you can wear something nice. but i would keep it more casual. you may be in line so its not to formal. have you considered having your priest or pastor come to your home, or a family members home. they really dont charge much and it would feel more personal i think. good luck to you and congrats..
Do people typically wear a nice suit and dress? Some dress up and some just go in jeans. It depends on you and your spouse.
Do you need to bring a witness? Yes you do.
Do people bring in a pastor or priest? No provided by the courts.
You need to go in and file for your marriage license first and then get the next available schedule to make your appointment to go in and say your I Do's.
yes u need 2 witness and what u wear depends on what u want to wear. even if don't have much money u can have a nice wedding, it's ur wedding day. if u want a dress, bouquet, and suit, go for it. if u want jeans and t-shirts go for it. the judge marries u at the courthouse and it's over. but u can have ur family there and make it a nice ceremony. u can throw ur bouquet outside after u sign the papers and have a dinner and celebrate. it all depends on what u 2 want. but u make it as simple of signing and going home in jeans, or being dressed nice and having a nice celebration. congratulations!!!! haven't been through that. that's what i'm happy w but my bf of 10 yrs wants the big expensive wedding and we're paying for it so we need to save:(
You wear the sort of clothes you would wear to church, a suit and a nice dress. The judge performs the ceremony so you do not bring a minister or priest. You will need a witness. The bride can carry flowers and the groom can have a boutonniere. These ceremonies are very nice and very affordable.
I was married in the court house and I just dressed up in regular clothes and yes you need to have witnesses about two. You do not need a priest. I was married in a church eventually but it is not bad getting married at a court house. Good Luck to you both...
In our state, the judge marries you, and some folks dress in full bridal attire and some wear jeans. Congratulations. If the judge is not in, most of the time the chief clerk can marry you.
I've had 2 daughters get married at the courthouse and both were very different! The reason they chose the courthouse is because of a beautiful bell tower they both loved on the property.
Daughter #1 got married on New Year's Day (courthouse was closed), with her own pastor. It was a formal wedding that we didn't have to pay for the location because our tax money pays for it. We even had the groom %26amp; best man, the bridesmaid, the maid of honor and then the bride arrive in separate Ford trucks: Ranger, F-150, F-250 %26amp; F-350. Everyone stood for the ceremony, as there were only a few park benches available. Reception was held at church.
5 Months later, Daughter #2 calls me and asked what I was doing, then told me she had just gotten married at the same courthouse! They were married by the court clerk in the office (my daughter got overheated and nearly fainted). She wore her jeans and he wore his shorts and flipflops.
So guess which one is still married? Yep, #2!
Nothing was said about a witness. I know #2 didn't take anyone else with them.
Go online and see what the court house offers. At ours it has video of the service. It looks and is professional. A class act. You can even has a option to show the ceremony live streaming for your out of town guests. You dress up in your best duds. You don't need a witness because they will supply one. They have an official to marry you.

How is abstinence until marriage a social movement?
I'm doing a sociology project, and I'm having a bit of a difficulty trying to explain how groups like ';True Love Waits'; and ';Silver Ring Thing'; are a type of social movement for sexual abstinence until marriage, and how they try to promote their ideologies.How is abstinence until marriage a social movement?
They use duality. Those programs are promoted to community leaders as ';teen abstinence'; or ';Abstinence Until Adulthood';. These would be reasonable programs if that was the case. However such programs are promoted to participants as ';Abstinence Until Marriage';.
Although I agree with religious conservatives who want to challenge the youth to delay sexual activity for a while, I totally disagree with their message that a condom is a provision for sin. I send my Christian friends to the website below which debunks the whole thing against premarital sex in the Bible. That way they have no excuse not to support comprehensive sex education.How is abstinence until marriage a social movement?

How do you feel about kissing before marriage?
My parents beleive it's best to save your first kiss for marriage that way it's more special and you can say ';I had my first kiss with my true love and husband';. Do you think you should wait for marriage?How do you feel about kissing before marriage?
A peck is fine. Making out...maybe no. That might get you two turned on and thinking about sex.How do you feel about kissing before marriage?
NO WAY. Come on! It's just a kiss. Saving a kiss for after your married is ridiculous.
girl no!
kissing its finee!
do what you want itd be so werid to wait that long..
no way just go for it
wow, that's just crazy. How are you going to know if you're really in love if you haven't felt true loves kiss.
um I think the question should be, how do you feel about not kissing before marriage? which is WEIRD! and crazy.. its a kiss, not sex.
I think kissing before marriage is fine! The first kiss I had with my boyfriend was extremely special, and just because it was outside of marriage doesn't make it any less special to me!
I can understand saving sex for marriage but I think waiting for a kiss is a bit much. Without atleast kissing you're friends with the person, how can you tell if you have a true romantic connection? When you kiss someone you either feel the spark or you don't, don't wait till your wedding day to find out.
I think waiting to kiss a guy until your married is stupid. How to you know if you have physical connection with someone if you don't even kiss them.
A kiss is special if you percieve it to be....waiting until you marry to kiss your husband does NOT make it so.....silly IMO.
While I respect everyones individual opinions, I think that kissing, phyisical contact and sex before marriage is natural and acceptable. I really don't think there is anything wrong with physically expressing your love to another person before entering a man-made legal institution. Bringing your relationship to a physical level brings you two to another level of trust and intimacy with one another.

How can a person be for same-sex ';marriage'; and against polygamy?
Changing the definition of marriage to mean ';any permanent relationship'; rather than a permanent mating relationship would seem to remove the rationale for restricting marriage to only two partners. Two persons, a man and a woman, are biologically paired in actual marriage, making marriage necessarily monogamous. However, permanent relationships such as same-sex ';marriage'; don't involve mating at all. Wouldn't this mean that polygamous ';marriages'; would have to accepted by the same standard? How can a person be for same-sex ';marriage'; and against polygamy?
Calling a relationship between two men or between two women marriage is completely compatible with legal polygamy. Both could certainly be permanent relationships. However, both are incompatible with the traditional view that marriage is the permanent relationship of one man and one woman.
Man-woman marriage is honored because a man and woman make great sacrifices to start a family. Only a man and woman could lead a family for two reasons. First, only a man a woman can sexually reproduce. Second, if they do have children, the children need both a mother and a father.
All the limitations on marriage choices, including having only one spouse and choosing a spouse of the opposite sex, are designed to protect permanent mating unions. For other relationships, these restrictions make no sense; they become obsolete.How can a person be for same-sex ';marriage'; and against polygamy?
I do not believe in same sex relationships or marriage because the Holy Bible states it is an abomination. Please don't take my work for it. Do your research and see for yourself:Leviticus 18:1-30
I think it is downright awful to say that marriage should be defined as ';a permanent mating relationship';. What about the people who can't have kids? Should they not be allowed to be married because supposedly marriage is for a man and a woman who will produce offspring?
Not everyone can produce kids. Meaning, same-sex couples aren't the only ones who can't have kids.
Don't be so offensive. Have some sympathy for those who simply can't have kids themselves because of some sort of low sperm count or non responsive uterus.
You are saying that they shouldn't be ';married'; like same-sex couples shouldn't be ';married';. That's bizarre rational.
A couple who wants to commit to each other should be able to be joined in marriage regardless of whether they can reproduce or not. That goes for same-sex couples and couples who can't reproduce.
The problem is that it's really not precisely defined what the heck a marriage is. So anyone can say anything. You don't need marriage to live together. So what do you need it for?
As it is now, it's just legal stuff to determine how will the children be supported and how you will split the common property if you separate. That being so, legal contracts can be invented for same sex ';marriages';, for poligamy and for damn near anything else you can think of.
If you go from a religious viewpoint, then different religions will ask for different stuff. Some religions have poligamy. Unless someone can prove that God meant it only one way for the entire mankind, how can you say yes to some and no to others? There would be no end to discussion.
First of all it needs to be answered what is it that we (as the people making laws) want to accomplish with the institution of marriage. Only after we know what the F we want, we can say what the marriage should be.
Most people don't view marriage solely as a relationship intended for the purpose of mating. If that was the case, infertile people wouldn't marry and married heterosexual couples wouldn't make the decision to remain childless. Those same people, however, do believe marriage to be a life long monogamous commitment in which the two are bonded exclusively. So, if you remove mating as the sole purpose of marriage, it becomes very possible for a person to condone same sex marriage but oppose polygamy.
This question does not make sense if you understand the definition of both. Polygamy is having relationships (marriage) with many opposite sex people at one time. Usually one husband and many wives. Same sex marriage is an exclusive relationship between two people just the same sex. Easily one can ';BE'; for or agree with one and not the other just based on your opinion of hetero vs. homo...or monogamy vs. polygamy. IF you are asking about whether or not the definition of '; any permanent relationship'; describes both, that's a different question.
Personally, I think that people should be allowed to do whatever they want, as long as it isn't harmful to others. Whether that be a man marrying another man or multiple women. Polyandry should be discussed too, what if a woman wanted to marry multiple men?
But then again, I know of people on welfare having so many children they can't support them even with the state's help, so maybe we should focus on what's really important and start helping people to help themselves lead better lives.
no I'm for gay marriage however Polygamy needs to stay against the law for many of reasons! When I see men who believe in Polygamy trying to marry young girls it's not only sick it's like a way for a sick pervert to get his rocks off by many of women young and old.
So I doubt the government will ever allow it to become legal.
It's really all about getting the public's monetary benefits.
Marriage is a MONOGAMOUS union between two people.

no because marraige is a thing of bond between two individuals, not multiples.

How does legalizing Gay Marriage pose a threat to religious liberties? What are the principal concerns?
How do supporters of same-sex marriage respond?How does legalizing Gay Marriage pose a threat to religious liberties? What are the principal concerns?
It doesn't.
';The civil rights of none shall be abridged on account of religious belief or worship, nor shall any national religion be established, nor shall the full and equal rights of conscience be in any manner, or on any pretence, infringed.'' - James Madison (Original wording of the First Amendment; Annals of Congress 434 (June 8, 1789).)
It is this overwhelming seriousness about religion that seems to be one of the hallmarks of the fundamentalist. He is concerned not only with his own conformity to doctrine, but the conformity of the rest of society to it, too. Many fundamentalists will not hesitate to intervene in the political process to ensure that society is forced to conform to the behaviors their world view requires, if not accept that world view. The belief that they are right, without any question, justifies, in their own minds, taking upon themselves the right to impose their point of view, by force if neccessary.How does legalizing Gay Marriage pose a threat to religious liberties? What are the principal concerns?
People who say that it will threaten religious liberties are implying that their place of worship may be forced to perform same-sex marriages, regardless of whether they approve of it or not.
The problem with this is that not only is that direct violation of the separation of church and state, but not a single bill allowing gay marriage that has been proposed or passed has in any way actually forced places of worship to do this.
In essence: their argument is one heaping plate of fail.
Because that means gay couples would be able to do things like (GASP!) ... file a joint 1040 tax form in April! It would be anarchy, I tell ya, pure anarchy!
Seriously though, I don't understand where Christians get this delusion that their religion gets to define legal marriage status. Are these people really oblivious to the fact that there are already millions of married non-Christian couples in the country? A church is hardly the only place where you can hold a legally-binding wedding. Heck you can get married in Las Vegas in a drive-thru, or by an Elvis impersonator. So much for the ';sanctity';.
Nor do I understand the ';call it something else';. Would a ';marriage'; and ';union'; legally be the same exact thing as far as federal and state rights/laws go? If so, then why should the government use two different terms for the same exact thing? If they're not equal, then it's discriminatory.
NOT legalizing it poses a threat to religious and civil liberties
EDIT* Correction, not legalizing it or making it against thelaw where it was once allowed ( California) certainly poses more than a threat to civil liberties, it negates them for a specific group.
Its nonsense to say a gay marriage in a household miles away somehow degrades the sacredness of your straight marriage.
Linda: They don't want to force your church to do it, they just want the government to recognize it.
I don't understand what's wrong with it, just because a person is gay dont' make them bad people. their is probably more good gay people out in the world than heteros so wats the problem as long as a person has good morals and values and treat people with respect it's okay, and supposedly god is suppose to love us all anyway.
It isn't a threat to America as a whole. It only threatens the minds of the overly religious.
No threats, just bigotry. Remember we used to have interracial marriages banned because of the ';sanctity of marriage'; crap.
it does nothing to religious liberty.
it's mere dogma.
It basicly walks over gods laws of marriage.
i find it totally ok for gays to get married what they do behind closed doors does not bother me at all so i dont care and plus im american and believe in freedom not a stupid conservative commi
It is no threat, its just bigotry.
It doesn't. The end.
Please, be understanding of my response. No hate is invoked at all.
1. It is forbidden in our texts (duh). I for one think that divorce and adultery should also be forbidden. There's much more to my explanation, but we can save that for another day.
2. Historically the nations that allowed homosexual unions (not marriages per se) either allowed sexual relations with children at the time, or did later on. While we know presently that pedophilia is immoral, who knows if that will change? There are a large amount of people who are actually pushing for legalization of pedophilia. They're point? That it's violating a child's liberties if they want to have sex with an adult. Even Wikipedia's article about homosexual marriage lists pedophilia unions alongside the homosexual unions.
3. I notice that there is some ignorance with the issue on both ends. The Bible doesn't specifically state that gays are evil or sinful. But it does paint a picture of how societies are corrupt and evil when homosexuality becomes quite popular. Another indicator is high divorce rates, adulterous societies, and murderous societies. Read the examples in the books of Judges sometimes. So in other words, it's not gays who are the problem. It's the downfall of society that's the issue. Homosexuality isn't a cause of evil, it's the result of a corrupted society (according to the Bible). So basically when the homosexual marriage issue comes up, Christians should actually be looking at how they can improve themselves and their communities, not focus all of their time stopping gay marriages.
There isn't much of a threat to our religious liberties. But the above points are of concern. Outside of R%26amp;S I have had a decent amount of gay friends. They don't agree with me usually, but they get along with me just fine. They all know that I would show up at their weddings too.
I don't care if they marry. If gay marriage becomes legalize and that is so totally against God's law; then we should all rejoice. The more signs of times come into fruition; the closer we get to the Apocalypse. But I am sorry for the gays (the bible mentions them as *self abusers*), because nobody wants another fellow human to end up in the Abyss where there are eternal flames.
Marriage was established form a statement from God that ';the two shall be one flesh' in Genesis regarding a man and a woman
Marraige is a mere hint of something greater and more permanent in heaven. It is a earthly and temporary parable of permanence of the ultimate marriage between Jesus and the bride of Jesus which is the church. The hint which God gave which points to the fulfillment in heaven is His design and should not be messed with.
Now if you want to talk about domestic partnership thats a different issue and I would recommend those not even be limited to sexual relationships as many close relationships such as between two sisters living together for decades warrent being recognized as family. Setting aside an object lesson of God for a preference of man is a threat to ones eternal salvation.
By allowing this to go forward, we are just digging a deeper hole for our nation to attempt to crawl out of. Which, since God is allowing us to dig our own hole, don't think it will stop. We, as a nation, have broken covenant with God, which means until we repent, and turn back, there will be NO economic recovery, no matter how much money they throw at it.Don't think so? Read your Bible, Jeremiah 11:1-11; tells us where this immoral nation is heading. That, is why Christians are against the gay agenda. They will destroy this nation, from the inside out! God will allow our enemies to take us over, I do believe both Russia, and China kill homosexuals. God will let our enemies clean our own house, but there will be a very heavy price to bear through out this all. Too bad the gays won't receive the help that is available from England, where, for over 20 years they have been ';curing'; homosexuals , who want to be set free. Hmmm!!

I don't understand what's wrong with it, just because a person is gay dont' make them bad people. their is probably more good gay people out in the world than heteros so wats the problem as long as a person has good morals and values and treat people with respect it's okay, and supposedly god is suppose to love us all anyway.
It isn't a threat to America as a whole. It only threatens the minds of the overly religious.
No threats, just bigotry. Remember we used to have interracial marriages banned because of the ';sanctity of marriage'; crap.
it does nothing to religious liberty.
it's mere dogma.
It basicly walks over gods laws of marriage.
i find it totally ok for gays to get married what they do behind closed doors does not bother me at all so i dont care and plus im american and believe in freedom not a stupid conservative commi
It is no threat, its just bigotry.
It doesn't. The end.
Please, be understanding of my response. No hate is invoked at all.
1. It is forbidden in our texts (duh). I for one think that divorce and adultery should also be forbidden. There's much more to my explanation, but we can save that for another day.
2. Historically the nations that allowed homosexual unions (not marriages per se) either allowed sexual relations with children at the time, or did later on. While we know presently that pedophilia is immoral, who knows if that will change? There are a large amount of people who are actually pushing for legalization of pedophilia. They're point? That it's violating a child's liberties if they want to have sex with an adult. Even Wikipedia's article about homosexual marriage lists pedophilia unions alongside the homosexual unions.
3. I notice that there is some ignorance with the issue on both ends. The Bible doesn't specifically state that gays are evil or sinful. But it does paint a picture of how societies are corrupt and evil when homosexuality becomes quite popular. Another indicator is high divorce rates, adulterous societies, and murderous societies. Read the examples in the books of Judges sometimes. So in other words, it's not gays who are the problem. It's the downfall of society that's the issue. Homosexuality isn't a cause of evil, it's the result of a corrupted society (according to the Bible). So basically when the homosexual marriage issue comes up, Christians should actually be looking at how they can improve themselves and their communities, not focus all of their time stopping gay marriages.
There isn't much of a threat to our religious liberties. But the above points are of concern. Outside of R%26amp;S I have had a decent amount of gay friends. They don't agree with me usually, but they get along with me just fine. They all know that I would show up at their weddings too.
I don't care if they marry. If gay marriage becomes legalize and that is so totally against God's law; then we should all rejoice. The more signs of times come into fruition; the closer we get to the Apocalypse. But I am sorry for the gays (the bible mentions them as *self abusers*), because nobody wants another fellow human to end up in the Abyss where there are eternal flames.
Marriage was established form a statement from God that ';the two shall be one flesh' in Genesis regarding a man and a woman
Marraige is a mere hint of something greater and more permanent in heaven. It is a earthly and temporary parable of permanence of the ultimate marriage between Jesus and the bride of Jesus which is the church. The hint which God gave which points to the fulfillment in heaven is His design and should not be messed with.
Now if you want to talk about domestic partnership thats a different issue and I would recommend those not even be limited to sexual relationships as many close relationships such as between two sisters living together for decades warrent being recognized as family. Setting aside an object lesson of God for a preference of man is a threat to ones eternal salvation.
By allowing this to go forward, we are just digging a deeper hole for our nation to attempt to crawl out of. Which, since God is allowing us to dig our own hole, don't think it will stop. We, as a nation, have broken covenant with God, which means until we repent, and turn back, there will be NO economic recovery, no matter how much money they throw at it.Don't think so? Read your Bible, Jeremiah 11:1-11; tells us where this immoral nation is heading. That, is why Christians are against the gay agenda. They will destroy this nation, from the inside out! God will allow our enemies to take us over, I do believe both Russia, and China kill homosexuals. God will let our enemies clean our own house, but there will be a very heavy price to bear through out this all. Too bad the gays won't receive the help that is available from England, where, for over 20 years they have been ';curing'; homosexuals , who want to be set free. Hmmm!!
MAARRIIIAAAGGGEE CAMMMME FROM RELIGION! THATS WHY WE DON WANT GAY PEOPLE TO MARRY. CALL IT A UNION. BESIDES ITS UNNATURAL
Romans 1:18-32. %26lt;')))%26gt;%26lt;
it diminishes the christian view of marriage...
It would change peoples perspective and would slowly start spreding?
Why does the gay community want to force the church to marry them?
It is against my holy word.
How do you select a marriage commissioner for a simple ceremony?
My fiance and I are planning on having our wedding ceremony in Mexico. However, to avoid the rules and blood work associated with getting married in Mexico, we are going to be legally married in our province before we go. The city hall does not have a marriage commissioner on duty to perform the marriage. What is the best way to select a marriage commission for a simple and straight forward marriage?How do you select a marriage commissioner for a simple ceremony?
You could still have a pastor or priest marry you. I have a friend who had a priest marry her and her husband within 2 weeks of speaking to him, no marriage sessions or anything. However you can have someone get certified over the internet if your tied for time. Sounds kinda cheesey but it still makes it legal.How do you select a marriage commissioner for a simple ceremony?
Me and my husband just had a mayor of a local town do it. It only cost $25 and was super quick.

When answering questions in Marriage and Divorce, how many people have you told to watch the movie Fireproof?
Also, bonus questions:
How many times have you seen people say this in a sincere way?
What do you think about people who recommend that this movie will save a marriage?When answering questions in Marriage and Divorce, how many people have you told to watch the movie Fireproof?
Is this an actual movie, as in something you go see in theaters, or is this a motivational relationship seminar thing that you rent from blockbuster?
Haven't seen it.
I recommend it though. ;-)When answering questions in Marriage and Divorce, how many people have you told to watch the movie Fireproof?
About 10 (that I actually noticed)
All 10 I believe were sincere
I shouldn't be a hater...'cause I've never actually seen the movie. But I'm a cynic and I snicker when I see it sometimes.
fireproof? gasoline and a match always worked for me..
I've *never* gotten the ';zomg you have to watch fireproof!!!';
I have seen the movie. I have marital problems. It is an eye opener and very touching. something my hubby and I really enjoyed watching together. anything you can find that can be a tool in saving your marriage is a positive.
did someone say 'fire'??
From what I've heard about this movie, it's not something I would ever want to see. And being that I haven't seen it, I have no opinion one way or another. But yeah, it's being recommended a lot.
I don't know. I jokingly recommend it. True story, watched fire proof and bought the book before the divorce, didn't change a thing.
LOL @ KJIII
LOL!
Never seen the movie, but I have flipped through the book the movie's idea is based on, and seriously, for MOST people, the teachings on what REAL love is may be a real eye opener.......seeing is REAL love has NOTHING to do with ';feelings';............
I think my kids' jammies are fireproof or something.
You seem like a really hostile ball. You should watch the movie Fireproof. It will save your life and your marriage. I will pray for you tonight.
A bonafide movie buff (and survivor of infidelity, bankruptcy, midlife crisis, etc.) My wife and I watched the movie and at the time it had a bittersweet feel.
On one hand, it was inspirational and motivating. On the other hand, we probably watched it at the wrong time (one of us wasn't ready to move forward yet). The cynical side comes up if you aren't open to changing.
Our lives go on and on daily. Movies end in about 2 hours and when the credits roll the responsibility ends (unlike life).
I like the movie and the 2nd time we watched it, it helped us clear the decks of our baggage and focus on each other.
Zero. I watched the movie. It was, like most movies, not very realistic.
I usually recommend a couple of decent books that I have read on reltionships. Other than that, I recommend counseling.
People who recommend that movie to save a marriage have never has deep seated issues in their marriage. I doubt seriously that movie could ';save'; anyone's marriage.
1) None
2) Lots of times - at least it appears to be sincere
3) I have no idea as I haven't seen the movie. Will it be the ';be all, end all'; to fix a marriage - unlikely. Hopefully it does help some...
none. i've seen the movie, it was trying to give a good point but it was SoOoO corny!!
I thought 'Fireproof' was about saving flaming, openly gay people's marriages.
But if you think it will help, I am going to sincerely recommend it to everyone. Will people be grateful that I recommended the movie and like me more?
Actually, no one has recommended it to me, but it is a GREAT eye opener movie. I always say that if you want to improve your marriage, practice loving your partner (love as a verb, not an emotion). This movie personifies that perfectly. I wish I could have convinced my husband to watch the movie too, but it's too girly for him, lol.
What do I think about people who recommend that this movie will save a marriage? I honestly believe that it CAN if the couple actually implements the ideas. Unfortunately, a lot of people 'work' on their marriage simply by staying in the marriage and changing nothing :( That doesn't work; you actually have to do something in order to save a marriage. This movie is a great motivator.
At least once that I remember for sure, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was more. The time I remembered someone recommending that movie, they said it in a very sincere way. I believe most of the people who recommend watching the movie are sincere in their intentions to help, but that some of them aren't living in the real world. Yes, it is wonderful when people can reconcile and work through their problems together, but not all marriages can, or should, be saved. For example, living with an abusive personality where they just won't change or get better, can have devastating effects on a person's self esteem and health.
I have never seen this movie, still don't think I would use a movie as a basis to answer any question sounds kind of stupid to me. Or wait maybe I'll suggest the movie Love Stinks ....lol
Haven't seen but I agree that anything that can help you to look at things in aslightly different perspective is useful.
I assume everyone has a movie they recommend for something, I personally have a old favorite that I always suggest to help all ailing relationships. ';Debbie Does Dallas';, the original. Now there is a story that will get most relationships back on the mend. I go through several tissues watching this movie, it always gets to me.product key honda finance

How can I obtain marriage records for free off the internet?
Every site I have found makes me pay and Ijust want to view a few public marriage records. Do I have to go to my local court house? I want to see records for VA. Any suggestions?How can I obtain marriage records for free off the internet?
West Virginia has them, for selected counties and years. Illinois does too. Virginia doesn't, as far as I know.
';Public'; means the public can view them, subject to rules on privacy and, sometimes, if they pay a fee. Sealed adoption records, by contrast, are not public. ';Public'; doesn't mean they are free, or that a county clerk has to spend tax money to put them on the Internet.
If you have the dates and want the maiden names, you might find them in the vital statistics section or the Women's pages in old newspapers on microfilm, at the library.
If the town was small enough or the couple well-known enough to rate one, the wedding story is a gold mine; ';The groom's brother Ralph, currently a Junior at State U, acted as best man. The bride's mother, the former Miss Irene Simpson, wore a light blue. . .';How can I obtain marriage records for free off the internet?
You could check and see if the county has a website that has them, but I have found that most counties do not have the manpower to go through 200+ years of records and upload them to the internet. Most depend on volunteers that come in and do it, so not all counties would have records on line, and the ones that are there may not be complete. The quickest and probably easiest way would be to go to the court house if you live nearby. You could also try the USGenWeb and go to the state, then the county you are interested in.
I don't think it's possible to get free marriage records off the internet.... unless you know someone who has access to ancestry.com (US records) and the marriage record is old enough to be on there. You can browse ancestry.com for free to see if the record is there. Otherwise, yes you'd have to go to the local court house or wherever the records are kept.
Sometimes they are on ancestry.com, depends. If you put names and dates on here someone would probably look to see. I found one of my daughters there and that was only 27 years ago.
Perhaps one of the geneologist on here has email and you could find out that way.

How can I remove the condition on permanent residence when my marriage has failed?
I received my conditional green card based on my marriage to my wife. We are planning to divorce because it is just not working out between us. I have to apply to remove the conditions on my green card 90 days before it expires. I want to know how can I apply to remove the condition and when can I apply. What are they looking for in order to accept the removal of the condition? ThankHow can I remove the condition on permanent residence when my marriage has failed?
You can file immediately you have the divorce ..no need to wait the two years
they want to proof of a genine marriage ..not usually that difficult
even after divorce she is still liable to the GOV under the affidavit of support she filed ...How can I remove the condition on permanent residence when my marriage has failed?
Your divorce would need to be final before you could file a waiver to remove the joint filing requirement.
You would need to prove that your marriage was entered to in good faith and broke down naturally. Provide much the same evidence as you gave the USCIS in the first place along with affidavits from friends and family (and your wife if she's willing to help) to attest to the fact that the marriage, while it lasted, was genuine.
Good luck.

What will be form of current marriage system in next 50 years ?
I think the marriage system will certainly continue as there is no other option. But live in relationship will be on rise. Marriage or live in relationship will become more like a contract where men and women will have a separate financial accounts and at the time of raising kids a concrete decision would be taken as to in case of divorce how the responsibility will be shared. Ex martial relationship will get better acceptance and definition of cheating will undergo fundamental change. What is your opinion ?What will be form of current marriage system in next 50 years ?
I think men will marry robots. LOL....
Now-a-days so many marriages are ending up in divorces b'coz marraiges are made depending on status and not according to their wavelength or nature and in the coming years this status will increase.
Your's lovingly,
M.JWhat will be form of current marriage system in next 50 years ?
Yes marriage system will certainly continue as before, but people would opt to legalize their marriages, by signing contracts and registering it officially in the court, even though there may be no official marriage ceremony. Yes, the definition of cheating will undergo a lot of change, to account for the faster pace of life, hi-tech and strong communication networks.
You are right when u say that the marriage system will remain as it is. Yes people will prefer live in relationships to marriage. This will start happening because of the financial independence of both men and women. The sufferers will be the kids though.

How many people saving themselves for marriage?
I am a male and im a virgin by choice and waiting till marriage. I know its not a popular thing to do but I know deep down inside my heart that its the best decision for me. How many other men and women are also waiting till marriage to have sex.

I commend you again for making the smart decision to hold off sex until marriage, and I wish you the very best of luck for the future.How many people saving themselves for marriage?
that's quite a testament you have, and one that is pretty noble. and i really do think sometimes about waiting til marriage, but if i were to, i wouldn't necessarily be doing it for religious beliefs; it's more of just plain morals and respect for yourself and others. i guess i'm just old fashioned im an 18 year old guy by the way

How does a marriage license work?
We're getting married in a little over a month and we were told to get the marriage license now. So, if we get it now, what do we need to have with us when we go to get it at the courthouse, and does it mean we're married after it's filled out? This may be a dumb question, but I really don't know, so any answers will help. Thanks!How does a marriage license work?
Usually a marriage license is good for 30 days Before you get married. You need your drivers license, and birth certificate. Some states want you to have divorce papers too.
You need the license to get married, but you aren't actually married till you say I Do in front of a preacher, judge, or whatever.How does a marriage license work?
It's not a dumb question! I wondered the same things. You'll need forms of ID, like a driver's license and you'll need to fill out your social security numbers, your parents names and place of birth, and it costs around $25.
You are not married until the officiant signs the license and dates it on the day of your wedding, then you mail it into the state.
Each state is probably different, so I would go to the county website of the court where you are going to get your license and there should be all the information you need.
Congrats!!
You are not married just because you get a marriage license. It has to be filled out by the person that performs your marriage ceremony and filed with the courthouse before it is official.
As to what you need to bring with you to get a marriage license, check with the courthouse.
The marriage license is the legal document you need to allow you to get married.
The license is presented to the officiant who will fill in any information required. Then you file the completed license (after the marriage) to register your marriage.
Laws do vary in different municipalities and states.
To read the questions on this post it seems the marriage license is only in effect to the county line.
It just says you are able to get married, it doesn't marry you. You don't have to have anything but identification and it isn't necessary that both of you go to get it. I got ours by myself.
Laws vary in different states. You need to contact the courthouse where you live and get this information from them.
yea, what Gate said....lol he took the words out of my mouth

My parents were married in Japan over 60 years ago. My dad recently passed away. My mom went to the social security office regarding his death and they said they need a copy of the marriage license! How do we get one, and from where?How do I go about getting a copy of a marriage license from Japan?
I'd start with the State Department in Washington DC.How do I go about getting a copy of a marriage license from Japan?
Assuming that they are immigrants, check their immigration paperwork and see if it lists their marital status. The SSA may accept that as proof.
Your Mom may be able to speak with the records custodian in the Prefecture where they were married. You should be able to track that down fairly easily if she's still fluent in Japanese.
Lacking that, you may need to contact a bi-lingual attorney in Japan to research it. Records are maintained by the Prefecture where they were married and a local attorney there could get a copy easily. Keep in mind that you will need to get a certified translation of the license. The attorney may be able to help with that as well.
The US Embassy in Tokyo can provide lists of attorneys in each Prefecture. Here's a link that I Googled in 10 seconds: http://japan.usembassy.gov/e/acs/tacs-71鈥?/a> They can also assist with translation services as well.
I think asking the State Department (which US Emabssies are part of) is only going to result in you being told what I am about to tell you:
If you want records of the government of Japan, then ask the Japanese government.
I suggest contacting the local consulate of Japan or Embassy. Consult their web pages, or do some active googling or both - this is probably a FAQ for them.
