There are other places in the Bible where men are commanded to love their wives. Marriage shouldn't be just about sex. In attempting to give create a brief email I think I gave that impression. My apologies. > Many people in this country have > tried the sex without marriage route and it generally works pretty well. Marriage basically is about a promise not to abandon someone. I think most people want a promise like that. Whether sex without marriage works pretty well is a big question. I doubt it. I wonder if all the out-of-wedlock children would agree with you that it works pretty well. Chris -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
