lower back in Jesus' time Jesus grow to be incredibly getting onto the Pharisees for transforming into all styles of loopholes so greater human beings could desire to get divorced. Like a guy could desire to divorce his spouse for burning dinner and stupid issues like that. in case you besides could word the Bible is greater approximately directly marriages and not gay marriages. It additionally does point out divorce for being abused provided that little interest grow to be paid to that project lower back in Jesus' time additionally. It does say it truly is okay to divorce a non-Christian if between the considerable different's will become a Christian, however the different considerable different is truly adamant against it (a million Cor. 7:12-sixteen). All in all, i think God would not like divorce in any respect, yet there are some situations the place that's in simple terms fit for the two spouses. It truly relies upon on what the couple is getting divorced over to initiate with. The 4 suitable motives that I endure in innovations from premarital type for divorce (no longer so as) are funds, parenting variations, in-rules, and intercourse themes. lower back, while it is composed of divorce i think God needs His little ones to have healthful relationships, yet each now and then that in simple terms isn't conceivable simply by fact one considerable different refuses to alter and give up being violent or give up playing or regardless of is it truly is inflicting the relatives to truly crumble. seek for counseling first to locate the difficulty greater to work out if that's a controversy which would be dealt with and solved over the years or if it truly is in simple terms no longer secure to be around the different guy or woman. desire this enables!

no. god was invented as a boogieman so people would be afraid to do something wrong. rather than doing something because it's the right thing to do, the idea of God makes it so people do something in the hopes of being rewarded ( or at least not punished) when they die.

None of the above.
We are led by our instincts - to protect ourselves and to protect the species. "Moral" actions are ones that meet those criteria. When someone focuses more on protecting their own interests (not just their life), then they begin to act immorally.

God created us perfectly in Adam and Eve. They made the wrong choice and so we became aware of good and evil from that point forward.

No, most people figured out on their own that other people were people to, and we shouldn't hurt them. They had to make it into laws for those who couldn't seem to figure that out on their own. We don't need a god for that.
