England and Wales also saw an overall decline in the number of marriages, especially among the young

The number of Catholic weddings in England and Wales has fallen dramatically in the last 25 years, according to new figures from the Office of National Statistics (ONS).

In 2015, the most recent year for which statistics have been recorded, there were 7,001 Catholic weddings, according to the Daily Mail – less than a third of the figure for 1990.

The decline is even steeper than for Church of England weddings, which have also fallen rapidly.

The decline mirrors the overall trend in the proportion of weddings which are religious ceremonies: the proportion has nearly halved from 50 per cent in 1980 to 26 per cent in 2015.

Meanwhile, the number of marriages continues to decline. Nicola Haines of the ONS said: “Marriage rates for opposite-sex couples are now at their lowest level on record following a gradual long-term decline since the early 1970s.

And the number increases for Muslim marriages by the same amount?

I don’t know what they expect though, they think men are blind and stupid and can’t see and learn from what has happened to other men.

I think marriage is tanking anywhere feminism has taken root. And for once, I can honestly say without sarcasm: Thanks feminism!

The first world, western modern countries. Yes.

Globalists want it to. But they win whether it does or not. Men either get married and are therby easily controlled, or they don’t and don’t have offspring.

What the globalists don’t get is that a lot of guys don’t care about having kids.

Women want everything, but want responsibility and accountability for nothing.

For the moment.

But they too are starting to notice and to complain that feminism is starting to take hold in their communities.

Across ALL westernized Countries, Marriage and Reproduction rates have been Plummeting and will continue to do so.

The “Westernized American Dream” has become a Nightmare.

I am not surprised that Catholic marriages decline faster than others, mostly because Catholic marriages pretty much require both parties to be Catholic. In this age of openness, that would be rather rare.

I’m sure most priests would marry you even if both were not Catholic, but that isn’t that relevant. If the husband is Catholic and she’s not, they are going to marry in her church. No question, she’s going to get her way. If she is Catholic and he’s not, he would probably be willing, but I don’t think she would really want a Catholic wedding. Catholic weddings are still a mass, with communion and everything. You’re going to make your non-Catholic guests a little uncomfortable, and it’s supposed to be about God still, not about her. I mean, she’s actually expected to kneel in that dress.

Ok. Then do it.

Not only that, but a Fiat that has been driven by hundreds of different drivers and absolutely thrashed and abused by every one. The clock is then wound back and you are told that it only had one careful owner since new.

Now that you are the legal owner you have to pay for all the maintenance that was ignored by all the drivers who were only interested in a quick joy ride.

For women, everything eventually boils down to Alpha Fucks, Beta Bucks.
