And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him. And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you? And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away. And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept. But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
Mark 10:2-9

“For the Lord God of Israel says that He hates divorce, for it covers one’s garment with violence,”
Says the Lord of hosts. “Therefore take heed to your spirit, that you do not deal treacherously.”
Malachi 2:16

But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away. And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him. For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy. But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.
1 Corinthians 7:12-15

We know the Bible is incorrect about science, so why should we trust what's on the other pages?
If the Lord God of Israel does not like divorce, maybe he should tell his followers to stop getting divorced all the time.

In my opinion, they should have spent less time talking about divorce and more talking about marriage and how to deal with it and whom should get married.

It's more like people don't select the right person and/or rush into marriage.
They base it all on emotions and feelings...

Though God said at the Council of Trent, that marriage is only valid in his eyes if it is a Catholic marriage with a male member of the clergy officiating.

If you aren't Catholic and/or not married via a Catholic ceremony, then your marriage is sinful in the eyes of God.

In reality marriage as an institution has no place in world where women have equal rights.
The two are contradictory by their very nature and origin.

Marriage was originally created so men could control and own women, thus controlling the bloodlines.


The point of my post is marriage has no place in world were human rights are central.

I completely agree. It's an outdated construct so why people make such a huge fuss over it is beyond me. It's such powerful conditioning.

It's not so much 10s of thousands of years of conditioning as in marriage is enshrined in the legal code with thousands of rights and privileges that go with marriage.

Does your wifey come with batteries? :P



But seriously, I too hate divorce. I know people who've been through it and quite often it is far more devastating than the death of a spouse or a loved one. It's really one of the most awful things that a person can go through and it's as much of a legal crisis as an emotional one.

So c'mon babee, let's start a-newww! Cuz breaking up is hard to do-oo!

Divorce is not the problem but marriage is as it is against human nature. Marriage was always a contract not for love but to combine two families together to gain leverage or to produce labour for the farm but it got perverted into a concept about love.

I don't give a sh*t, I value my sh*t far too much.

What is your point, btw?
