OMG - drove me absolutely nutty.
IF you hold hands / kiss and "god forbid" sleep with someone before you're married you have officially committed adultery i.e. broken no.8 of the 10 commandments.
Forget the fact that you haven't even met the man you're going to marry yet. You are still and adulterer.
The one who broke her pledge basically will need years of counselling to get over the guilt that they have loaded upon her and has since been shunned - such christian behaviour - my word i thought the whole thing was about forgiveness?
And then the whole I've chosen a better standard of life / better breed of person.... Euch. Didn't realise we were back in 1930s.
The brain washing that was prevalent was of such an extraordinary level that I am gobsmacked. But then again this is a country which still teaches creationism and may soon have a VP who believes in that drivel...... RANT OVER
The holding hands bit was unbelieveable.
Only surpassed by the fact that after waiting for 20 years to have a boyfriend, they all married the first man they met.
Did you see the weasel? Im sure he was actually a rodent. Proposed after 8 weeks. Of the 6 month engagement he spent 5 months posted out with the army.
[ ] Im sure they will live happily ever after
