Well today in therapy the thought of marriage was brought up. Being here at Biola, marriage is something brought up everywhere and anywhere. I don't think there's been one day at school I didn't over hear on a conversation about the topic. I bet you're wondering, so Keena what's your view on marriage? I think it's been watered down just like love personally. People jump into marriage without even thinking about what's really in store, especially here at school. Let's take a look at what goes into getting married here at BIOLA.
Boy meets girl in September. Go on a few dates. BAM ring by spring. LIKE WHAT THE HELL. I feel within this small community people assume hey you're a Christian I'm a Christian let's get married. I'm over-exaggerating just a little bit but to an extent it's true.
Marriage today isn't like marriage back in the 50's. The dynamics have change along with the people. The divorce rates are off the charts in the church and out in society. What is marriage seen as anymore anyways?
To many it seems so ideal to get married and have kids. I don't question the social institution of marriage, but how peo
ple rush into it with no regard in what marriage entails is what I question.Many Christians believe that by allowing homosexuals to get married, they ruin the santity of marriage. Hm, funny when there are many Christian marriages that don't make it 10 years now a days. Now you're probably asking, well Keena what are your views on homosexuals being able to get married? You may think you know the answer by the thought given above, but don't be decieved by what you think you may see, and I realize there is more to the Christian argument against homosexual relations/marriages.
Anyways, I feel one could be successful and fulfilled without being married. At this point in time I personally don't want to get married, unless it's for life and not just a thing to do because it's so ideal, but for what it was back in the days.
