Oh come on, nobody has to, people supposedly go to marriage because they want to.

And ordinary people. I know a lot of marriages that fell apart or are with second spouses or people succumb to live with a cheating spouse and they're not celebs. People are horny or they get bored with each-other. They get bored with their lives, but once we reach Star Trek level of civilization, I mean... I guess there is a lot of pressure on people to get married. If you don't do it you're a failure so people just follow their desire to get married without being sure if they're ready.

Yes!! I remember noticing that long ago. I think I was like 13 when I noticed how shallow (or dare I say immature) Hollywood movies are when it comes to marriage, with their "Happily Ever After" endings. It was such a revelation to me at that time Ingmar Bergman's "Summer With Monika" about young lovers that run away and get fed up with each other and then the grand-master himself: R.W. Fassbinder with "Lola", "Chinese Roulette", "Bitter Tears of Petra Von Kant"...

It's not like people are going to talk about it in let's say school or anywhere else. Maybe in some self help books.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
