Traditional Mawaige

 Traditional marriage, that ubiquitous term that has caught the nation's attention like the term "family values" did a while back. But from where do these terms originate, and what do they actually mean?

If you ask any conservative, they'll tell you, without even blinking, "The Bible."

Well let's take a look at that, shall we?

In the bible it was common practice for a man to have many wives, concubines and slaves.

In the bible, "love" is never mentioned as a reason for marriage.

In the New Testament, marriage was generally frowned upon altogether, preferring instead to exhort followers of Christ to be celibate and even eunuchs (ouch!)

So...tell me about that "traditional" part again?  Back
