      Yeah, religion. Marriage has literally no basis in humanity except for religion and legal protection.

      Living with someone doesn’t require marriage. Procreation doesn’t require marriage. Cooperation doesn’t require marriage. Being with one person exclusively for life doesn’t require marriage. It’s literally just religion and laws, that’s it.

      Not in the situation being described here. The situation being described here is a method for people to legally untether themselves from their parents.
