Why should they be discredited just because they are divorced or have remarried? Now if someone has a track record of several divorces then they need to think about what has been the problem and fix it before going on with a new relationship.

Boo Boo, I would love to say that there is no bigotry toward divorced people. However, there is. It's not the fault of the individuals, but the law they follow. This is most churches. Especially the Baptist type. You are defiantly a lower class citizen in their eyes. Now this seems like a stereotyping but, I've left so many churches due to this prejudice. You are not allowed to do much at all to further the gospel. Too bad too, all that wisdom going to waste. Most are biblically skirting the law anyway since they have had relations with other people, and just not let anyone know it. The truth has a way of coming out sooner or later, I just choose to be honest about my life.

Perhaps what you mean is that divorced or remarried persons earned a bad reputation because of failed marriages, is that what you mean? If I am single, and a divorced or remarried person would pursue his love, I might reject him not because of what had happened in his marriage, but because he is already married even though he is divorce. Nowadays in a modern society where man's culture allows a divorce person to remarry. I would rather think twice before entering into a love relationship with a divorcee because in the eyes of God, it is still considered to be a sin.

Hmm, you must be one of those right winged religious types trying to protect the sanctity of marriage from divorcees, feminists and homosexuals. Good luck with that one! Hahaha.
How do I feel? Well, I feel as if marriage isn't necessary for survival in our society and therefore it's need is decreasing and it's expectations are rising. Marriage is already discredited. It has nothing to do with the divorced and remarried though. That is a simple product of the evolution of Western society.

You know..My first marriage, I was 19 years old. It lasted 1.5 years. I was young and did it for all the wrong reasons. Some people have done this and have learned from it. I had remarried someone else later, we have been married for 11 years now.
I wouldnt discredit someone because they were married before. Some people make mistakes.

No, they just got out of a bad deal, I think they should be credited to have the nerve to get up and get out of a terrible ,abusive marriage. When all the love you once felt has been thrown in the garbage. I think they should be credited not discredited., cause you never know someone until you have lived with them and that is when all hell breaks loose.

There is little discredit in today's society. Too many people out there are divorced and no one cares anymore.

BooBoo, some many people hate to be told anything which they dont like. Many cant admit something is factual unless they agree with it and many certainly hate to hear anything in regards to religion.
Now, divorce isnt right unless your mate cheated upon you and you were faithful to them. (I will also ad that in my opinion, you cant ***** but so much or scream how you were cheated on if you kind of contributed seriously to your mate cheating on you, by not holding up your end. Like if you are not having sex with your mate because you are being pissy or because you dont get your way or you dont care how they feel or what they need.) Certainly remarriage is wrong unless your were cheated upon and you were innocent. Infact, if your mate didnt cheat on you and you remarry, you are guilty of adultery as is the person who is sleeping with you.
A lot of people parrot whatever lines are popular or make them comfortable or allow them to do what they want in situations. It is your right to do so if you wish. But you have no right to expect others to go along with something they know is wrong, simply because you want to feel good about yourself or what you do or how you act. Frankly, I have little respect for many who are divorced as well as many who are remarried. Why? Simply because I have seen many of these people screw their previous marriage up, screw up the life of the other person and then act like they themselves are the injured party. I am tired of seeing and hearing people who do the wrong things speak of being happy or having the right to be. Doesnt the person you made vows to have a right to be happy and to expect you to do what you promised? If they dont have those rights, why do you have anymore right to be happy?
Now, everyone wants to talk of being in love or having that feeling or whatever. How many times can a person fall in and out of love? A lot to be honest. What? Is a person suppose to be able to just leave a line of exes until they either get it right or just get to old to try anymore or simply die trying?
Basically, divorced people in many cases are people who have little reason to engender respect from others. Of course that depends on what REALLY did happen, but there is nothing wrong with someone looking at the divorced person with some suspicion and wonder.
Lastly, think of this. When we did have higher standards, required more of people, didnt let them have the excuses they now use all the time and we held people accountable, things were better and people were more responsible. It was when we started yelling that everyone gets to be happy by almost whatever means they use to be happy, that things started going down hill and our society started getting worse off. Many who are divorced are nothing more then selfish brats who dont want to face facts, dont want to become better people, dont want to do what they should do and dont honor their commitments. So why should they not be looked at poorly?

Anyone who divorce will inevitable have a scar on him/her. This scar will be brought along to the next marriage. It is almost impossible to be erased. So when you marry a divorcee, you will have to bear with the scar in your marriage.

It depends on the situation. If they have been married like five times it probably spells trouble, but one occurance could be for many reasons.
