Marriage and Vatican II

The article stated the importance of marriage not only to the church but also in society as a whole. I believe that this is true in American culture still today. Marriage is an important part of life when you get older and when you fall in love. Although sometimes the media corrupts the idea of marriage, I believe it is so crucial when you fall in love with someone when you are older. On the other side of that, I do not believe marraige is the MOST important part of life. Some people just don't find "the one" or simply do not fall in love at all. Also, getting a divorce should not be a sin. People can fall out of love, people lie, people cheat. There are so many good reasons to get divorced I find it hard to believe the church is still against it. Also, I don't consider marriage to be a "vocation". Marriage is you're choice and I feel as though a vocation is more like a calling to do something. I don't think God "calls" anyone toward someone else. I believe a vocation in life is something much more important than just getting married.
