MARRIAGE IS NOT A MAN-MADE TRADITION!


Yeah, it is. It didn't exist in it's current form until the Judeo-Christian-Islam faith structure arose in the Middle East.


No, it is not. The concept and covenant relationship of marriage was introduced by God himself in the Garden Eden. This precedes the Judeo-Christian-Islam faith structure by almost 2000 years.
