Til Death do you Part?



I honestly couldn't believe this as I was reading the story on Yahoo news a couple weeks ago, but a politician in Bovaria (a person standing for the leadership of Bovaria's Christian Social Union - yea you heard it peeps, a so-called Christian) has began a campaign to get marriages to expire after 7 years due to the well known "7 year itch".



Her argument is that it will reduce the divorce rate, and it will release pressure the thought of life-long marriage may give to people - which causes depression and stress upon a family.



The likely-hood of this politician winning her bid for the expiry date on marriage is little to none, but I want to know what you think of it. Do you think that being she is a Christian, she is totally going against what Christian values are? Would you feel that your marriage meant as much with an expiry date attatched to it? Do you agree with the whole idea of this expiry date?



Your thoughts please........
