A brief history of marriage

Via In The Agora

Money quote:

The larger point to this love story is that marriage has not always been the pinnacle of an ideal Godly relationship, as many advocates sometimes claim. Property married property and it was not uncommon for children to be betrothed in infancy. There was no personal feeling. Romantic love was a rebellion against loveless marriages so commonplace for centuries
