Sagamite:You still present as confused - in a number of ways; 1. If marriage can literally never be enjoyed, your campaign should be against marriage, not divorce - why undego the stress of an unhappy union, only to suffer further stress upon divorce - which is surely more likely if the union is unhappy? 2. If marriage is indeed typically unhappy, why do you think your chances of having a string of happy marriages is high? 3. What is stopping you doing it Hugh Hefner - or any other style - and championing that. No one is forced to marry or structure their relationships in a way they find unpalatable. 4. You've come again with the medieval illiterates ish. Firstly, books are no twritten by illiterates are they? And evidence abounds of thier accomplishments. Please remind us of when you first had storey building in Sagamu ![]() Sagamite:Marriage is, was, and always will be fine. It's people who fail at it, due to a lack of undertanding or desire to shape it after their lusts and not it's design. There is always change, and "progress" continues. It does not mean that it is all good or works better. If it has indeed failed, present something better. You have the scope and the intellect no? All you've managed so far is to rail at divorce laws - which I agree to a degree can be clumsy at best - but find, present and more importantly, practice a better way. Blaze a trail, let the whole world look and wonder. Let marriage be condenmed by the sheer brilliance and utilty of "Sagamony" ![]() Sagamite:It wasn't an argument - it was a statement of fact and evidence of what obtains. Sagamite:The God of The Bible Sagamite:If a relationship is in the "announcement - announce the optimum one you have put together. Live it and let us marvel. No true intellect spends ages raging against a percieved problem without offering a plausible alternative. You've dissed marriage to the heavens. Fine. We have heard, now what? All we've seen is wailing about the divorce laws. Give us something to pause and consider mate! Sagamite:I have no church, and I'd be the first to say "church girls" must be stressed with due dilligence like any other. And ahead of trying to get you to marry, I need you to understand what marriage is, then find someone that gets agrees or is willing to follow your lead. We are still waiting for your boast of SagaKids. Apply your domestic ideals, have these kids and raise them optimally within it, as a demonstration of your superior intellect and relationship model.

TV01: Gospels are for religious people, I am not one of them. Before Christinity, and also before government, but not before God. And provisions for marriage, where narrow, tightly defined and rarely in view. And you know it how exactly? Let me guess, it is written in the Bible. ![]() Your view of divorce, is as a logical outcome of marriage - based essentially on "feelings". You don't use facts, you use deceit. It is a logical outcome of marriage since the Christian concept of marriage is a social and religious construct that violates nature. ![]() And your ridicule of feelings won't change the fact that every human being is an emotional being and not only rational. And if you feel that you have to sacrifice your good feelings for an institution, you are free to do so. I will pass. My happiness is more important than any religious doctrine. I am not purely rational, I am very emotional and I love it. I use the fact that every human being desires to feel good. You use the Bible and call its content a fact, which is more disputable than my standing that it is natural for any being to want to feel good. ![]() 3 Likes 1 Share |

Sagamite:Ok to be precise - you rail against divorce laws and their application, considering them unfair, You also didain marriage as a failed institution. For divorce, I say work on the relationship at the point of entry, not exit. Without marriage, there could be no divorce. Even where provision is made, it is no tthe preferred or optimal outcome. Work to change the laws if you care to, but in a feminine led worls, good luck with that. As for marriage, I utterly reject the notion that it is either failed or antiquated. For those that get it and apprehend it, it is a delight. Ask me ![]() Sagamite:So, you take back the "illiterates" comment then ![]() Sagamite:At an individual level, the dynamic and expectation may vary somewhat. Some men men think "as long as I have a son", some women, might be, "as long as he provides materially". It can be more, less,or none of those things. But the individual metric of success rests within the definition of what a marriage is. Generically, by definition, I see marriage as the lifelong exclusive union of a male and female. If it meets this then success. If it has a few hiccups along the way but still prevails, then success. And if, the unon is blessed with children, all the better. Sagamite:Hopefully, I have done that above. Sagamite:Copout; 1. Whilst different types are all good and fine, we specifically want one that is intrinsically superior to marriage 2.

Be evangfelical about your doctrine of promiscuity and indiscriminate childbirth being rewarded with marriage to a wealthy eligible man. I for one have no desire to gainsay you. Who told you that there is a cost attached to feeling good? And who told you that feeling good makes others miserable? If everyone finally learned how to take care of their own well-being, we would have nobody to worry about. It is so simple but instead we have plenty of people who depend on others for something they can't do for themselves but expect others to be capable of doing for them. And then we have divorce cases like this with people who think that others owe them anything. |

TV01: Now you sound less confused. ![]() TV01: No, I don't. I asked questions about how educated they were. Illiteracy is a general synonym for being educated.

TV01: You specifically want ONE? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This is where you are getting confused and not coming from an intellectual angle. There are many people in the world with different desires, different aspirations, different beliefs, different values and different in so many other ways. You can't satisfy this differences by saying you want to stick with ONE solution and think you have been optimal. For each batch of people, they would have a superior and preferred model. This is what I have repeatedly tried to educate your likes on. If you want to have a Christian-arranged marriage with your wife where you both agree that whatever you make in the union is seen as joint earning and you would not separate even if one of you is miserable because Jesu would throw a tantrum in heaven, by all means, do have it. But that is not what Saga's batch would want. Saga needs to be happy. Saga needs to have the best option at all times. He does not do religion and does not give a hoot about Jesu or Mo or Kristna or whoever. He gives a shyt about making sense and making sensible decisions. This is where you need to learn: The world does not need ONE and ONE should not be forced on everyone. What should be forced on everyone is ability to make choices.

Thank you TV01, Sagamite needs special mentorship from you. I don't know what women have done to him in this life. Before you marry, make sure you marry the right person and for the right reasons. It will stop the possibility of divorce and loss of your wealth. If you stayed with that woman till you died, wouldn't she be entitled to all your wealth? So why are you angry that she is entitled to half when the marriage did not last the rest of time, possibly because of your own indiscretion. These laws definitely impose on the more wealthy person the duty to make the marriage work, because the judges take note of the fact that the more wealthy spouse can abuse a divorce process because they have the money. 1 Like |

When you get married, all assets both bring into the marriage becomes a joint property. Whether man or woman.

baby124: Nonsense! Even in partnerships, partners get what they put in. For example, not all PwC partners get the same pay. There is a valuation process of the worth of each partner and his/her contribution. Some are paid £400K a year, others are paid £2.8m a year. Even in cases where people go into businesses as partners without signing an understanding, if there is a dispute in future that ends up in court, no sane judge would say it must be split 50/50, he would ask for evidence of contribution and apportion based on it. Calling something a "partnership" does not justify equal split. That argument fails! You want to try again with another one? 3 Likes |

If you want to avoid that, protect yourself with a pre-nup.Nope, people underestimate the greed of their partners before getting married because they were swimming in love.... They don't even anticipate they would get divorced in the first place... Blame it on blind love... I agree though, people should start getting pre-nups, although I anticipate it would bring down the marriage rate cos there would be no incentives for most women... Goodluck getting a girl that will agree with putting up with you and getting zero when you wake up one morning and decide you have had enough of her. Amen 3 Likes |

Sagamite: Quite so. Which makes it draconian and autocratic and reaps one of their right to choices/decisions. Do as I say or get penalised, stay put in the marriage no matter how unhappy you are (that's if there's any such thing as a happy marriage) or get the sharp end of the rod. Very undemocratic and an affront to right to freewill. Marriage doesn't benefit anyone, not more than cohab couple who didn't perform the ceremonial signing of sheets. It's all a facade and a shadowy display of pretense fuelled by religion. |

Sagamite:Happy to carry last if I'm hearing new and good stuff Sagamite:Literacy is the ability to read and write - agreed. Education is acquiring the lifeskills to function normally in the society, and at the time in which one lives. Knowledge is altogether different. There are vast differentials between people in a society at any point in time. They were literate and educated for their time, as we are for ours, And our successors of 10, 20 or how ever many generations time turning around and calling us ignorant would be as wrong as what you are doing now. Not least because these things are successive. The people then had the brains to do exactly what we do now and would if they had the same benefit of hindsight that we have. There is a pernicious myth, that present day men are somehow more intelligent, than our ancestors. Nope! Sagamite:Firstly I gave allowance for hiccups. Secondly, of all domestic relationships, domestic violence is least prevalent in marriage. Thirdly, it is not always extreme or dangerous; in fact many "relationship types" experience a degree of low level of conflict. Fourthly, if a "spouse" dies at the hads of their spouse, that would not be considered successful by my metric. Sagamite:That is marriage - biblical marriage - as I understand and champion it. It's not for anyone else, and certainly not for those who subscribe to different relationship types. It's close to the one under discussion, and even those forms of marriage that differ from mine are always enacted between two people no? Sagamite:I'm happy to be labelled a Christian as I'm a bible believer and a disciple of Christ. Assume nothing else ![]() There is no fear of hell-fire for believers. The gift of god is eternal life. It's that, or one perishes - completely ceases to exist - after paying for their sinful deeds, which may be quite heated ![]() Now please, this relationship model that is better than marriage - we are waiting ![]() TV |

ronald4lif: Get with the programme. To many women, feminists and their lapdog cretinous "real men": It is awful if you do all these things you say to a woman, but it is okay if done to a man. That is evidence of "civilisation" and "equality". Mate, alot of women support this because they are fcking terrified they would be left by their men after their looks fade. So they are happy with a law that would force men to stay with them even if the law is senseless and discriminatory. It is all part of their selfishness. 3 Likes |

Sagamite: Well, safe to say the best approach is never to commit oneself to the union or if one must there should be a pre-nup arrangement as conflicting issues that could lead to the marriage breakdown is inevitable. It depends on one's level of tolerance, endurance and the quest to appease the society to view them as one 'happy' couple. But I can't live and endure life when I've a better option, to be free, independent, happy and unaccountable to anyone. Makes no sense. |
