Mr. Harris: Good morning, Mike! Mike: Mr. Harris! What a surprise! Zonker didn't say anything about you visiting! You back east on business? Mr. Harris: No... my... my wife left me... Zonker: Dad's here sort of convalescing. Mike: Oh, I'm sorry... How long will you be staying, sir? Mr. Harris: We were married for thirty-two years. Zonker: So you gotta figure at least a week.
The claim that marriage is a fraud promulgated by religion and government is an attempt to deny responsibility for children produced and the burden imposed on the mother — an attempt to saddle governments and religious organizations with the consequences of their own actions..It does this in great measure by pretending religions and governments were not created by people, but rather were imposed by aliens or the deities it denies exist..Enjoy yourself and let others be responsible for the consequences of your actions. They’ll probably do a better job — even if they do a bad job — than you would have.
