Marriage has been an institution in societies around the world since time out of hand. It began as a way to connect tribes, and became a way to forge empires. From dowries to long, costume-ridden services, the traditions and practices have come and gone, going in and out of fashion as the various, interested factions try to keep the practice alive. It’s been called the foundation of society, and a god-given right (that ironically some people are not allowed access to.) But with divorce at it’s highest rate in history, and the definition ever-changing, does the legal and religious uniting of families have a place in modern society?
Are you a modern thinker for thinking it's dumb, or are you just a cheap bastard that doesn’t love your girlfriend? Are you compromising by giving in after decades of bashing it, or are you just finally growing up?
And do married people become more crazy in the sack, or are all these sitcoms depressingly, sarcastically correct?

It's a good question. There is the question of commitment and "institution", but what does the "institution" mean outside of the religious context? We can't think of commitment in terms of marriage. If you respect your partners, you will commit to them. Marriage is a demonstration of that, but it does not embody it, and should not be necessary for it

Marriage is superior choice for couples. The best way to assure a successful marriage is to not live together or sleep together before marriage. This advice has research behind it, btw. Children thrive better in a family that have committed parents as the head leaders. Commitment = marriage vows. Of course God Sanctions marriage between a man and a woman. For those who do not know about God and His Holy Word can stick with research advice and statistics.

Life itself is complicated and changing that these ancestral processes must evolve, marriage is no longer a tradition to become a step that many fear, I do not think I should be joined to someone by a role rather than by my feelings...

I would disagree. I understand your point of view, but lets set religion aside for a moment. Suppose tomorrow no marriages had legal recognition anymore. Suddenly if a dead-beat dad or mom left the family, who would step in to save the day? At least in the USA, it is the government. The government spends a lot of taxpayer dollars in these situations (jailing fatherless children, food stamps, etc), and if the balances continue to tip this direction, we could be in Greece's shoes, austerity measures and all. Every child deserves loving parents, and marriage is a way to safeguard that. It is a public commitment to faithfulness, and without it I believe society will crumble.
