thats nice and all but, i was always told that the reason you wear it on you're left ring finger is because that finger supposedly has a vein that goes all the way up your arm and connects to you're heart, which is coincidently a little more to the left side of your chest.....not sure how true it is, but it'd be pretty cool if it was.
This is just superstition.The reason why you can't seperate your 4th finger is because when you put your middle finger together in that position,your 4th finger's joint can't move due to pressure being applied on the 3rd.
Evidently my husband and I are not distend to be together forever because I can separate my two ring fingers with no problems... I don't believe this for a second..! I think its more biblical in my opinion...
@marmaee I read something about it on the left, the left ring finger has a vein that goes straight to your heart, something like that. You can google it, I found it a couple years back. I dont remember the exact wording, but it was along those lines.
what is the purpose of wearings rings in the 1st place...can the couple be husband and wife without the ring being in between them? is wearing the ring religious thing or cultural in christianity if yes..why do atheists wear it 2
@saifulah1303 It is not just a Christian thing. This was as the video stated, a Chinese explanation. We developed the ring-finger habit as a sign of commitment in multiple cultures, and it just stuck as social heritage within the world culture. Nothing to do with God, atheists, or the LGBT community. :)
@ZEVCIEL not so much putting yourself down ...just acknowledging your now part of a couple a partnership...if you didnt "bring yourself down" you would be self-centered and there isnt room for that in any relationship
no, the thumb is your parents, index finger is your siblings, middle finger is yourself (you cant seperate yourself so thats why its down.) fourth is partner, and little finger is your children.
The true answer is because the old Christian marriage ceremonies had a clause which has now been removed. It said "hold up your hands. In the power of the Father (thumb), Son (Index), and Holy Ghost (Middle), I now pronounce you man and wife. (Ring goes on ring finger)
I am sure this is not meant to be an absolute scientific or historical documentary. It's only an illustration of the importance of marriage. Whether it's factual, natural or contrived, some people may find this interesting, and maybe even cute. Why, then demonstrate such animosity toward the video. If it's bunk to you, so be it. If you liked it, so be it.
In many cultures today (orthodox Jews), it is not the left hand but the right, and in many ancient cultures like the Gauls, it was the middle finger not the fourth, or more recently the thumb... anyway, we already know that EACH finger has digital veins (volar and dorsal) which drain into a a venous plexus at the wrist, and thence upwards through the arm...!
actually, tradition has it that the practice was brought to Rome in the 3rd century BC, when it was believed that a vein that led directly to the heart, the vena amoris, originated in the fourth finger although in actual fact, rings of betrothal are not documented in the Roman literature until the 2nd Century AD!
In an ancient book I own, it states the ring finger is the only digit possessing a vein that runs directly to the heart. And that is the reason an eternity band is placed on the fourth finger. I don't know medically if it's true, but it's what the book states.
Really sorry, folks, but this sounds like old wives' tales to me. Can anybody produce historical information showing that the choice of the 4th finger for the wedding band was influenced by Chinese custom or philosophy? If not, why are we listening to this?
What makes the thumbs our parents? Why aren't the index fingers parents? Why aren't the smallest fingers ourselves? What makes the ring finger our spouse? These are completely arbitrary, and meaningless.
actually it doesnt matter who represents what, because the metaphor still works as long as the ring finger represents the spouse, you retard. The order comes with the order of things. Parents are first, then they have kids. The middle finger is yourself because in order for this thingy to work, ur middle finger has to be tucked in. The pinky is ur children for obvious reasons. It's because they're usually smaller than their parents.
The point, of course, was to observe that the assignment of fingers is completely arbitrary, and therefore the analogy is manufactured and not natural. You could count from the pinkie back to the thumb, for instance -- and your "obvious reasons" for calling the last finger "children" would still hold, the thumb is shorter than the other fingers.
Your use of the word "retard" says much more about you than it says about me. Perhaps you should omit it next time. Self-restraint is a virtue.
well think of the fingers generation wise. the thumb tends to be the thickest of the fingers meaning its the oldest ( so the parents would get that finger), the next 3 fingers are roughly the same size so they are the next generation. lastly the pinky is the thinnest of all the fingers so that is the youngest generation.
yes the video may be "arbitrary", but it is not "meaningless" because somewhere there will be someone that attaches meaning to something. nothing is truelly meaningless.
