.I am not against abortion, but this country does to many of them, better education on birth control. I don't have a problem with gay people either, they for the most part are very well educated and make vast contributions to society, the biggest problems I see are straight people getting a divorce today, the rates are sky rocketing, and the parents use there children as pawns and there is a constant dysfunction among them and it goes to the next generation, almost a endless cycle this is the real problem in my opinion.

I believe that abortion and gay marriage should be against the law. But i dont know about divorce. I think in some cases divorse is a good option like if you or your kids were being abused. But than i wonder why that couple got married if they couldnt handle their marriage. Plus it screws up the kids lifes.

Marriage and divorce is more a church jurisdiction than anything. The U.S. Consititution has evovled to allow protections for all people of all religions based on differences in practices and morals. What remains that is very controversial is sometimes debated outside of that sphere into the realm of philosophy and simple reason.
Divorce is not something that causes apparent physical harm to any parties involved and so it is outside of simple reason for criminal consideration. If you are to ponder the effects of divorce, you must rely on scripture or relgious tradition for the answer to your soul's fate.
Christianity sees divorce as impermissable because Jesus, who is God, spoke specifically about it in his Sermon on the Mound.
Speaking specifically to Catholics now. The idea of divorce is not condoned or permissable, like Protestant sects largely believe. When the idea of Annulment is considered, we must understand what merits an annulment.
An Annulment is not the same as divorce because an annulment is granted only when the marriage in invalidated by examination. By which I mean that if either/and
(1) the "marriage" was coerced or arranged.
(2) the "marriage" is founded on deception or unsound mind.
(3) the "marriage" was entered into by a bireligious couple whose conception of marriage is greatly distorted and misaligned.
Also, there are other considerations not listed here. Few would agree that a forced marriage by a dangerous groom would be based on God's love and representative of his justice. Nor would two 16-year-olds who deceive each other to marry for the sake of an bastard child be founded on that love and be exemplary. We don't view these as valid marriages because a Christian marriage is one based on God's plan, not ours, and on love, not necessity.

good point, and theres not a big difference just like abortion and gay marriages, 2 people are joined together and made a promise by God to be united 4 ever. when two people break that bond they break the promise they made to God
