frankiej Wrote:Are you saying that without marriage a women can have no purpose?
back then in that society, yes. today, no. womens rights are a relatively new thing that gave a woman new purpose. back then a woman could not take care of herself. this is not b/c they weren't capable but b/c they weren't taught.
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
