Take the Plunge!
A part of almost every religious marriage ceremony (not all, but many)
says something along the lines of
"Till Death Do Us Part"
So, my question is:
If you die together in a plane crash
Are you still married?
Or do you automatically part ways when you die?
Don't you get to be together in some kind of afterlife?
Or is that statement assuming there is no afterlife?
Or, if, as commonly accepted, this just means if you don't die together,
the surviving spouse can re-marry...
which brings up a whole other issue....
The new spouse will also commit until "death do us part"
And if this new couple dies together, then what?
Is there some kind of three-way in an afterlife?
Or do all three of them have to part ways so none of them can be together?
Or is it that you have a choice in some kind of afterlife to be together or not, just not making that commitment right now?
Just curious....
I don't like that statement.
Be more specific.
I commit to you forever, because really I love you so much I'd want to be with you,
even if there is any kind of afterlife,
I want to be with you forever, and ever,
and if we aren't committed wholeheartedly now to that extent, we aren't committed enough.
Furthermore,
If I die and you want to remarry,
I'm fine with that, just remember, you're still committed to me, so you have to look me up when you get to where I am.
I'll be waiting.
'Cause I'm THAT committed!
Is that too long of a vow?
