In the universe of nominal Christians the divorce rate is 47%, a statistically insignificant 3% below national average.
Amongst devout, regularly practicing Christians the divorce rate is somewhere around 26%.....significantly lower but still shockingly high.
Oh, Jesus ALSO said:
“And I say to you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and he that shall marry her that is put away, committeth adultery.”
Half of all marriages end in infidelity, unhappiness and economic ruin. The other half end in divorce.
Who are all these women cheating with? Unmarried or unattached men?
Not sure it makes sense to say rate of cheating among women has increased but rate among men hasn’t.
Yep, especially when the husband is the last to know. Seen it happen.
Women today feel entitled to cheat because they do most of the housework
Keep searching for unicorns.
Forty years ago, the average marriage lasted twelve years.
It’s probably even less today. The excuse back then was.....
The most important quality in a partner is: Sanity.
And the alternative was an abortionist, communist, gun-control-freak, dishonest, homosexual, anti-patriotic hell-bitch openly bent on destroying America. I think Donald Trump's utter lack of fidelity to marriage was a very small issue in the grand scheme of things.
“And why have so many women begun to feel entitled to the kind of behavior long accepted (albeit disapprovingly) as a male prerogative?”
So cheating is a male prerogative ? I guess it’s now totally safe to say that “Black people rob convenience stores”

My girlfriend of many years cheated on me with a guy she found on World of Warcraft. She uesd to go fishing with him in-game and chat on the virtual docks.
She even showed me.
“My girlfriend...”
Is she now a “former” GF?
“Even people who believe in God cheat.”
It’s mutually exclusive. You can follow the bible, or you don’t. There is no “both”.
Believe in god I take to mean worship, in your context. Am I correct in that ? People who Believe don’t sin, unless they make honest mistakes and then repent. I believe it’s quite clear on this.
So if you perform a sin while thinking that God exists, You’re not a believer, or you’re not a sinner.
I’ve read a few of your posts today, and that one was spot on.
The others indicate a HUGE betrayal from a woman. I’ve suffered from that as well, but this one seems to be tearing you apart at the seams.]
Feel free to PM if you wanna get something off your chest.
“Is she now a “former” GF?”
Oh, yes. 14 years of dating. I left her (Beat her to the punch) and she left that night and stayed with mister World of Warcraft fisherman.
A year later I met a real woman and married her a few months later. 14 years vs 14 weeks. Let her sit on that whoopie cushion for a while.
Granted I wasn’t the best guy in the world - we dated each other in high school and dated throughout our 20s, through college and after. I was stupid. I wasn’t a real man.
But she still had to hop from one lillypad to another. A golden parachute.
Why do women cheat? Because they can.
Because she will not experience censure and shunning from her friends, who will blame the husband for being inadequate to her needs, and thus justify her cheating.
Sounds like you are doing ok. Good.
What dreck. Decent evangelicals, men and women, voted for Trump and helped put him in office. Many other conservatives knew Trump was the last chance for this country to turn itself around. He’s doing a fine job despite all the swamp creatures who set out to destroy him.
As has been said many times, we vote for the president not a priest, rabbi or minister. It’s amazing the Never Trumpers who live and breed here.
“Rethinking”
What do you mean by “Rethinking” bitch? Do you mean I’m supposed to change my way of thinking about it? Don’t try to change minds, bitch.
Three quarters of America today suffers from that affliction, and especially SJW's.
