It depends upon where you are. Some places have no-fault divorce, which means that legally you don't have to have a reason.
Now, morally it is different. Impotence for a man doesn't mean necessarily he cannot father a child. That would be if he were sterile. For a woman, if she cannot conceive, she is barren. There are plenty of couples who stay together happily without children. However, if one or the other wanted children and the other spouse could not have one - that is a very personal decision. They could adopt or have medical intervention.

If a man or woman finds themselves in a marriage that does not bear children, but their heart's desire is to be blessed with children of their own, then the other partner can agree to release them from the marriage. A new relationship does not guarantee the birth of children, though. (Also, as others have pointed out, the word you're looking for isn't impotent, it's sterile or infertile.)

No! Do you remember the vows that you took. They say for better or for worst, in sickness and in health. There are plenty of other options, like adoption and IVF. Is the impotence really the reason or are you just looking for an excuse to divorce your spouse?

Well it is hard to blame either partner if he /she cant do anything, i.e beyond their control.But most of the time men's impotency can be cured by regular exercise, yoga, nutriuous diet(with certain foods like almonds) and sef-discipline(including celibacy )for some time. I am not aware about women's case, but giving the entire physical and mental system a rest and chance to recuperate (through fruit juice fasts,abstinence from smoking and alcohol and sex has effected many miracles)
Most important do all this with remembrance of God and that God is helping you. Relaxing the mind, and filling it with wholesome, positive thoughts and forgiveness can heal both mind and body.Try it. God bless !

You need to give us more information about what's going on. The fact that you used the word 'excuse' instead of 'reason' tells me that you're looking for a way out.
It depends on why you got married. If you got married so you could have kids, then sure it can be a reason (not an excuse). If you got married for love, then no it's not a reason to get divorced.
Are there other things going on between you two that need to be addressed?
Why not consider adoption? There are lots of kids out there that need homes.

you dont need a divorce if you are looking for a way out. not sure where you come from but in south africa that is a reason for the setting aside of a marriage (AKA an annullment) Things will be status quo ante (as they were before) and it will be as if the marriage never existed. if the couple were really in love, children wouldnt be the biggest issue. we are not animals and our sole purpose is not just to reproduce

Marriage was ordained by God to be a holy matrimony... Children are just a bonus and not everyone gets it! If u truely love each other, this wouldnt be a big issue (though it is) coz u would adopt n treat the child like your own.

No. Marriage is about love. Whatever happened to for better or for worse? Is having a kid THAT important? What happened to the LOVE that brought them together in the first place? Why can't they adopt? There are many options; divorce should not be one of them.

If you are looking for an 'excuse' then any reason is as good as any other. Ignore all the pious religios ugly people who post. If the marriage is over get out x

there are other options, having a baby is not the be all and end all in a relationship, it is not something you do to save a relationship, but should be a product of a strong and stable relationship. There is always the adoption route.
