Cheating is a sin, divorce is not

I don't think it is a sin... but then my parents are divorced. I'm 34... back then (in the seventies) I was the only kid in my entire elementary school with divorced parents. This was a really big deal, as we live in a very Catholic area... it was even worse when my mother remarried.
Gather the evidence and make your own choice. It is rather confusing! Personally, I think people get married too easily... maybe because marriage isn't a permanent institution any more. Regardless of the reasons why, I think I'll continue to avoid them both!

The only official sins are the 10 Commandments. So, adultery is a sin. Divorce, which is never mentioned in the Commandments, is not.

Yes it is a sin...it says it in the Bible...the only thing that would classify as divorcing without sinning is if one of the spouses was involved in an affair.

Staying in an abusive marriage or loveless marriage should be the sin.

It's not a sin if one person was unfaithful.
