Ravi, You fail to understand the significance of the family unit in society from all cultures. History has shown that marriage and the family are the bases for continuing humanity, culture and society.
The breakdown of the family unit greatly contributes to instability in society which can be seen in low educational achievements among young people, drug addictions, crimes of all sorts, and poverty. The leaders of communism tried to change the family unit into a communal endeavor. Spiritual leaders like Osho have attempted to do likewise. However, their experiments failed miserably. For this reason, the once mighty USSR disintegrated. And, Osho was banished from the USA and died as another false prophet in the history of the world. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Ravi Yogi <raviyogi@...> wrote: > > You are still hung up on marriage aren't you John. > > That you place so much importance in an institution that was created to make > women a possession like property shows your intelligence.
