Meadow muffins!  Marriage is what the two people make out of it, nothing
more and nothing less.  In my case it is a deep personal commitment
*between my wife and myself*.  It has nothing to do with God.  Nothing
to do with relatives either.  And I feel that we have a particularly
strong and healthy marriage.

If you need God as a crutch to hold your marriage together, fine, whatever
works for you.  But don't assume everybody does.
