For Better For Worse Are Wrong Words
« on: May 05, 2008, 05:04 AM »

Where did the words "for Better For Worse" come from anyway?. I have searched the scriptures everewhere I have never come accross those words in any way.  I think it is wrong to put such curse on people being married. If anything they should have come up with something like "When wealth comes we will stand together and enjoy it, when challenges come we will stand together and overcome it.

Why start someone's new life together with such curses?. that probably explains some of the reasons why so many marriages are being plagued by one problem afterthe other all overthe world. I won't let any priest say such thing on me if I stand up there to get married instead I would draft my own words and give it to the priest before that part of the ceremony.  What sayest thou then people?

One can actually do that you know. Its done all over the world. You write your own simple vows and the priest use it.

You r very funny poster for better does not mean a curse in anyway it simply means through good and bad times and bad times here we mean challenges u face in marriages. Whether u want to accept it or not those challenges(bad times)  will definitely come. You only ask 4 God's grace to be able to overcome them. u for throway the better now.
Coming from a bachelor i sure understand when u marry u go understand.
