Just a little question I like to ask Christians... If you were widowed, would you remarry? I understand that there aren't marriages in heaven, but I think marriage is a lifelong commitment and I don't think it ends when the other person dies. I don't believe that I would remarry, but I could see good reasons that someone might; especially if they have young children that could use a "father/mother figure." Let me know what you think...

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
Would you?

Never been in that situation before (I'm working on getting a first wife, too much to worry about a second!!), so I can't tell 100% for sure. I'd like to think I'd say no I wouldn't remarry, but it also stands to reason if I hate being single now, then if I become married then single again through the death of my spouse, I will hate it and try to find someone new. Sad, but something to think about.
But then again, if I have a first marriage, it is going to be a miracle. Second may be asking for too much.

I would, if I felt like it were God's leading. I have an aunt who re-married after my uncle died bascially because she didn't want to be alone. Now she is miserable. She would have been better off alone then in the marriage she is in. I truly believe being single and loney is better than being married and miserable.

I think I would have to leave that decision up to God's will. If I was like 80 years old though I don't see myself getting remarried

I guess it depends on how much my first wife nagged me.
That and I'm open to it, but I couldn't make that decision until I was faced with it. I'd like to say "No, I wouldn't", that sounds like the honorable fairy-tale answer, but I'm not a fairy tale guy, I'm still living in the really real world, so who knows.
