Almost like saying, well, ‘I know he’ll be divorced again and I’ll be divorced again so if we are both divorced at the same time maybe we’ll try again’. I swear it is just as if they are talking about a time share condo or a car lease.

This is exactly the behavior that has gotten us to the point where we are seriously discussing homosexual "marriage". Heterosexuals need to look in the mirror at our own behavior and lack of seriousness when it comes to marriage. We are the ones who put all of us on this road. Sometimes, I just hate my generation. They pull down the institutions and then replace them with stuff that doesn't work nearly as well -- probably because they are always government-based.

I was a teenager when ‘no fault divorce’ entered the American lexicon. As I recall the arguments, somehow this was going to help women because now they would be able to get out of ‘abusive’ marriages. I also recall a story in the local newspaper about a decade later pointing out that the unintended results had been to actually make it easier for men to get free of a wife and kids.

Another of those modern ‘improvements’ that doesn’t seem to have improved anything.
