Marriage is very beneficial to society; it should be encouraged.

Marriage should not be eradicated,because it is an institution ordained by God.

Eradicating marriage will result in confusion and total breakdown of morals. The institution, no matter what, still commands respect and esteem of the highest order

"the science is clear that marriage is an antiquated social institution that likely deserves to be eradicated"

I thank God it is science and not scriptural.

cheers.

[font=Script MT Bold][/font]Well this gets very interesting. Please can someone tell the blogger that he is way out of league. Eradicate marriage. That is simply out of the questions. How else can some of the guys hold on to the rich babe that is willing to appropriate money to him for services she only gets. Let him think again. Huh

Of course marriage can't be eradicated, but should the government stop giving people incentives to start families?
Governments are going to continue support for the institution because the family is based on it and without good solid families a nation is destined for destruction.

A country where marriages are failing wholesale, the next generation is going to be affected badly.

I think the problems encountered these days in marriages in Nigeria are as a result of colonization come westernization.we tend to copy most of the things we read/see in foreign books,magazines and films while still trying to be Africans.and this could be likened to taking pepersoup or any other African dish with icecream or tea.
If we can separate Western/European culture from our African culture we will not be talking about ERADICATION of the institution called MARRIAGE.

they may discourage it and some people shouldnt but eradication is such a harsh term because some people are so much in love the last thing they can do is marry

Maybe you should tell us who messed you up before we eradicate marriage. Or don't you think so?

If marriage is condemned and eradicated men here on earth,
it simply means that God is wrong by instituting marriage in
first place.

I don't think marriage should be eradicated by any societal law.
If it will go away, it will go away on it's own.

the meaning/ purpose of marriage has changed over the centuries and it's no surprise that divorce rates are going up every year.
From what i read in a  article a long time ago (and i posted part of it on a similar topic. lol), marriage came about as an institution where daughters are offered up to a man so that he supports/ provides for her basic amenities and in return she takes care of him/ be responsible for the marriage. traditional marriage was arranged.

today, many women can provide for themselves and even provide for their husbands ie. providing for each other.
It's also common sense to say that both partners should take care of each other be responsible for their house. (even though many still feel that this is the female's role)

anyways, today, marriage is all about love and ideals. So, if you marry for love, make sure you are able to keep the love going for decades. It helps that both partners (PARTNERS) understand each other and are compatible.

You ask me to be quiet, you already know that's impossible, I'm I proving to be too much for a feminist to handle, let me know.

I literally can't leave you alone since I never held you in the first place.
Ob-wetin? sessed abi what did you call it?  Try not to appear full of yourself, I'm not interested in/fond of small teenbops.

Again, I know.   We had this discussion earlier (cooking thread). You migh think you're far from being a teenybopper, but you're not far from being an 'equitybopper'.

the things that come to mind about you are your claims, and obsession with unrealistic 50-50.

most traditional marriages that go on in Nigeria will not be eradicated in our generation (if ever).
