Things were not so bad. Everyone that I know of, even those that have heard both sides from her as well say that the things that were at an issue were trivial things. Nothing we couldn't work through. Yet, the Christian wants to give up without even hardly trying. Not to mention, I am 80% sure she had cheated on me... totally Un-Christianlike. How very interesting eh?

I beleive the words you were looking for was IRONIC and TYPICAL.
The Christian wants to give up without "even hardly trying." But isnt that typical? Look at why they beleive in the first place - it is the easiest way to live life - instead of accepting that life lacks a greater meaning and is finite, it is easier to accept fairy tales about God's granting eternal, infinite life....
Again, sorry to hear bro. But hey - youre the bigger person.

Actually statistics show that Christians have a higher divorce rate than non-Christians. The reasoning behind it is usually that Christians tend to marry at a much younger age due to a belief that pre-marital sex is a sin.

There's no comparision. It's individual. But ofcourse, a Christian will pray about it. It doesn't mean, a Christian will always have the way one would want it to be. If your parents did not give you the toy you wanted, does that mean that they are not your parents?? So, don't blame Christianity for individual's action. You must wake up & accept the truth my friend.

hummmm, my Catholic priest whom I went to see after I found out my Catholic husband was cheating on me told me, and I quote " It is the job of the wife to serve her husband, go home and be a good subservient wife, this will pass". Yea, ok, Im on my way...
I say religion does not make the person, the person will, however have to deal with the karma he/she is putting away for a raining day. 4 years later and my ex is the most miserable person on earth, stuck having to live in the hell he has created for himself. I on the other hand found a new man AND a new religion. Get on with it sweetie, life is way too short and you only get one chance at it :)

THis time, I looked over all your previous questions.
Keep trying does not mean keeping relationships with others. If you were truely trying, you wouldnt be wondering if you would save your wife or your penpal in a fire where you could only save one.
Seems to me that you are only fooling yourself about the trying part.
Not the answer that you want, but it is the truth.

Not Christian like but very human.
It's hard to say what she felt being your wife. It could not have been as good as you are saying if she is not wanting to work on it. Then she could just be a selfish twit walking away from the worlds best man.....

It has NOTHING to do with being christian (or any religion) or atheist. It DOES have to do with insecurities and unfaithfulness to the parties involved. Throwing people's beliefs in their faces is wrong be it a religious person or a non-religious person. I think both of you need to grow up.

Poor guy. No wonder you're so turned off by Christianity. Is that the only example of a Christian you've ever had? Sorry about your marriage, I truly mean that.
Christians aren't perfect, they're human. Christ is the only true example of how a Christian's supposed to act, and we ALL fall FAR short of Him.

That's a bummer about your marriage. Sorry to hear about that. And yes, you are right...sounds like she is not acting Christian-like at all (though I wish not to judge her). For God hates divorce.
I know you are not a Christian, but consider this...…weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning. (Ps 30)

Keep trying what?
Everyone as in 1,2 3?
Maybe she saw something lurking.
I think you are the judgemental one just by reading your posts.
