  Speaking of human emotion, infidelity of a beloved partner is one of the bitterest situations which some can not bear, resulting most of the times in crimes and the destruction of a family. This is the work of satan the devil. The family is the basic unit of society, and satan is up to destroy the whole human society. So, our first line of defense against the caprices of satan is to keep the family intact. Wounds, physical or emotional, can be healed by time, as an old song says “…but time can bring a change of heart; and love can make another start. Someday you may comeback to me to stay; but who can say how soon?” But by God’s power a wound can instantaneously be healed the soonest possible time.

So, our first line of defense against the caprices of satan is to keep the family intact. I agree with you fundamentally on this though "Satan" to me, is not some evil force over there but resides with each of us in our daily failings and shortcomings If the family unit is destroyed there is little hope for anything else having a clean slate or strong base. Any relationship without a spiritual foundation has little chance of success in my opinion. And even if there are betrayals or trespasses they can be forgiven and the family stay in tact if one courts a belief in spiritual matters. Agreed God in the family, makes love lovlier, sometimes for some first time around. |

Sure, blame it on poor Satan…  Outside influences and pressures are only an excuse; it all comes back to the individual who has no one to blame but his or her self in the end. Naiveté, pseudo-affection, marriage for the wrong reasons, if a relationship doesn’t stick, it clearly wasn’t meant, or was premature. The process of unions isn’t easy but we’ve been doing it for thousands of generations… It can’t be a science, and it can’t be an act of God, in my opinion, that’s just too intangible. And the degradation of family values is the same, people just don’t think the way they used to, they don’t possess the same values anymore. Love is now confused and even harder to find than ever. Also, more and more people are searching for it, and it can rarely be found… Children’s well being are now secondary to a truly fruitful marriage, and divorce is a result, I know little on the subject but I think that it’s almost impossible to find exactly what your looking for and most the time you just have to be content with what you have... |

I don't necessarily agree with this. Yeah plenty of marriages of happened when they just shouldn't have. Either from young love to just being infatauted, to thinking that a ring on the finger is gonna make all the problems go away, whatever. A lot of people just let go of the marriage because they can, because its allowed now. There was a time when it was illegal and dishonorable to get out of it. Now it isn't. Where that breakdown occured I don't know. Anyway a lot of its laziness too. When you couldn't get out of the marriage, you worked to make it better, find the kinks and fix them. Now its like "oh, he never picks up his socks, we're not suitable, good-bye." There's no want to put in the time and make a relationship work. Relationships aren't just happily ever after. Sometimes you have to find the kinks and work them out. Yeah, sometimes people just aren't compatible and you rub each other the wrong way and there's nothing you can do. That's an obvious case of where people shouldn't get married. Uh, I had more to say, but its gone. soulatom wrote: I agree. |

Err, I don't see why you disagree, this is exactly what I'm saying... ;D People split up because it’s easier now and they don’t get exactly what they want, they don’t try hard enough to make it work… As far as I can tell, I was saying everything that you're saying… wasn’t I?  |

huh. Really came off differently yesterday. Don't ask me to reread and give yesterdays impression. Running on days of no sleep. ugh. I'll try and come back tomorrow and respond intelligently. Right now though, I need to go curl up and DIE.

nice illusions spread out here.
thanks for either grandstanding or derision. fear or anger, both from a cloud of unknowing.
no, your commitments are the trickle-down policies of misguided missionaries.
thanks for the band aid.

It is only trickle down spirituality if you personally have not made direct contact If you think that is an illusion or self-delusion then what isn't? Your version? |
