If Someone Gets Married on a Bet--Do You Think They're Religious

You didn't say what religion was involved here - I don't believe that there are any religions that would take marriage so lightly. I can't think of a single thing that you can say in support of someone who would get married for a bet, but I am interested to know if both parties knew about the bet? Marriage is certainly a serious issue, but you don't have to be religious to be married, so we can assume that this concerns someone who claims to be religious?? I must say your responses so far have been a bit rude considering that you have given people very little background to the discussion.

As much as I agree that marriage is a serious thing..to assume that EVERYONE who gets married is religious is a mistake AND what YOU'RE personal definition of religion may be is most likely NOT the same as mine or the next persons...In fact I'd lay bets that your idea of marriage and mine are completely different...

First off, what does marriage have to do with religion. If you are married or you get married it does not necessarily mean that you are religious. Religion aside I think it is crazy to get married on a bet. I do completely agree with you that marriage is extremely serious and it is not a game or something to be viewed as just temporary. You need to understand exactly what you are doing and why you are doing it and have a valid reason to get married. If you do it on a whim or because of a bet, it is a guaranteed failure not to mention a risk not worth taking.
