added pop culture Should we have it?58.178.199.22 00:30, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

I don't think pop culture should be in a law article. But pre-nupts are a popular discussion point so we need a general pre-nupt article that is not legalese and retitle this article say "Pre-nuptial agreement (legal aspects)" or something just as specific. Any comments? Erisa Goss 21:56, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
I do not think Catholic Church law should be a proper subtopic. It may be provided as a tangential point to motovate a link to a separate article on church law which may compare how say hindu, protestant, Catholic, jewish or muslim religions treat pre-nupts. I think the section should be reworded to say that it is not law but church teaching and NOT BINDING or deleted. Erisa Goss 21:54, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
The article says, "For example, they cannot subject a marriage to a condition concerning the future (such as an agreement about the dividing of assets in case of divorce)." I fail to see how agreeing to divide property is "a condition concerning the future." There is no condition to it whatever; the promise is absolute. What triggers the duty to perform the promise--divorce--may or may not occur, but that's a completely different issue, from a legal point of view. A true future condition might be, "I promise to marry you, if you give me children; but if you fail to give me children, I'm entitled to divorce." Such a condition--that all bets are off if a future event occurs--is clearly a "condition concerning the future." But agreeing in advance how property is to be divided if the worst (divorce) should happen is not a "condition" in the logical sense of the term. Indeed, making such an agreement evinces the virtue of providence. Furthermore, CIC 1102(2) says that one may (in some cases) marry subject to a condition concerning the past or present; agreeing to marry on the condition that the parties have entered (past) or are entering (present) into a valid prenup would be such a condition (note: I don't say that they'd be acceptable under CIC 1102(2); only that they relate to the past or present).

Could someone give an example of what a pre-nuptial agreement might actually say, and explain why it is necessary to have in that instance? Zargulon 15:27, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
I was running through recent changes and came across this article. I noted the template at the top stating that this article may not represent a world view. The article says the same thing, in not so many words. I kinda think the template is redundant. Normally I'd be bold and remove it, however, I'll ask the more knowledgeable. Does this template appear to be redundant and almost a disclaimer? If so, should it be removed ? THanks KoshVorlon ".. We are ALL Kosh..." 17:24, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
Can a Prenupitial agreement include a clause stating that in the occasion of a divorce, the parties involved do not have to pay alimony? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.79.195.105 (talk) 20:18, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
