It's not a pointless pursuit. Married people are statistically happier and more stable/productive and their children even more so, adding to the overall health and stability of society that will permeate into future generations. I can't think of anything less objectively pointless.

Because they happen to fit nature's mold. Of course they'll be happier, because they're able to do what makes them happy. But not everyone does fit that mold, and these are unable to do what would make them happy. And doing what would make another person happy may not make them happy.
