Why even bother posting a question if it is simply a platform to preach & flame from? Before posting on this topic you may want to switch the brain into gear. I personally stayed in a marriage for 7 yrs, even though I was my ex-wifes punching bag (a fact my former pastor new about but NOTHING about) - os am I a sinner for finally divorcing her then???
Consider yourself reported bud!

When wedding vows are made it is supposed to be for life but people seem to go into a marriage with the idea that they can divorce if they don't like it. I agree that marriage is sacred and divorce is a last option, if you are abused or your spouse is a person who goes outside of the marriage for sex then I think the person has a right for divorce. If the divorce is just because you decide that life is greener on the other side of the fence then put some fertilizer in your own yard and make it greener and nicer to live with.

I'm not so sure that it is a sin...but I do believe divorce is wrong!
Too many people don't stick things out nowadays and think the quick solution is just to get a divorce. My parents have been married 31 years and I would like to follow their example and have a long happy marriage.
I do however think divorce is okay in cases of domestic violence, adultery etc...when one partner has broken their marriage vows and something unforeseen by the other partner before they got married.

I find your question insulting and harsh. I went into marriage with both eyes open and with love and complete commitment. I intended to make the marriage work at any cost. It did cost. It cost not only my life and security, peace of mind and sanity, but it cost my children's lives as well. Mental illness occurred, which included completely self-destructive behaviors - gambling, serial cheating, financial irresponsibility, physical abuse, emotional trauma, sexual bullying, and on and on.
Do you honestly think that God thinks that my finally (after 18 years) divorcing is a sin. It says clearly in the bible that infidelity is a clear-cut reason for divorce.
Don't you think that most (certainly not all) divorced people feel tremendous guilt and sadness about it?
I hope to God that your marriage is strong and healthy and that something so traumatic doesn't happen in your life. Judging others is a really negative pastime though and I would suspect that you have some issues going on yourself to be so mean-hearted and intolerant.

Sin!= word that labels people and allows others to avoid the hummanity of many situations. Yes Divorce is wrong when people have entered a relationship and just get tired of each other. Divorce is right when one party has to protect themselves from the other party. No one shuould have to remain in an abusive relationship. I think that in too many societies Divorce is both too easy and too hard to obtain. A word of caution If you are using religion to judge the world on absolutes those same absolutes will condem you!

I don't believe divorce is a sin. However, I think people should take the decision to get married a lot more seriously, and really consider the consequences first.

Not every divorce is about abusive partners..................that is only one reason that divorce happens. In some countries all a man has to do is state three times that they divorce the wife................does that make them male whores too? Why is in not acceptable to you that women divorce? Why have you never stated you view on men who divorce many times? Not all divorces are instigated by the woman. Are they ........what's the male equivalent of a whore............................oh, gigolos.........or in your view are they just red blooded males? The real sin (if anyone subscribes it sins ansd sinners) is staying in a relationship which does not work, for whatever reason. Especially if neither or one partner refuses to acknowledge any problems. Ostrich syndrome is not helpful in that scenario. Unless anyone believes that to suffer is somehow 'saintly' and if they do they are misguided, at best..

Divorce is the last resort one takes after trying all forms of reconciliation with their partners. In Christian terms, it is wrong to divorce your partner, but the days of "for better or for worse" seem to have elapsed with the times. Many couples either marry young or possess little knowledge of each other hence divorce quickly.

Do you know anything of marriage, or do just REALLY dislike married people? Divorce isn't a sin, it's what people do when their partner is cheating on them, or abusing them or thing like that. So, I suggest you learn more about marriage and divorce before you criticize them.
