Sanctity of marriage?

"Do you want to know what's destroying the sanctity of marriage? Phone messages like the ones we'd get at my old divorce firm in Reno, Nev., left on Saturday mornings and picked up on Monday: "Beeep. Hi? My name is Misty and I think I maybe got married last night. Could someone call me back and tell me if I could get an annulment? I'm at Circus Circus? Room—honey what room is this—oh yeah. Room 407. Thank you. Beeep."

It just doesn't get much more sacred than that." (Dahlia Lithwick in Slate

But of course, in the never-never-land of religious fundamentalists, the real threat is the few people who actually want to marry, but aren't allowed to.
