The Roman Catholic church did something similar to that in the past.... It is said that your life flashes before your eyes just before you die.... it's called Life

In many places outside the US it is up to the couple to first obtain the civil marriage and then celebrate the Religious ceremony.

And you missed my point completely as well. Science and economics are not to be used as evaluations of if something is moral at all. They are only tools and facts that go into the bigger discussion of the morality of the act. They are precise and give relevant facts but that is all they do.

This is idiotic. I wish Plato and Aristotle were here to slap you.

All ethics and morality are clearly situational.

That is an interesting idea.

I don't think you will have many takers with that chastity requirement though, and with still labeling homosexual acts as sins. You still aren't giving them the same rights as a heterosexual couple.
