“I guess if you had your way, they would all be burned at the stake for their “transgressions” from which there is no forgiveness or repentance.”
Nonsense. Repentence would constitute either leaving his mistress and remaining single or returning to his lawful wife. Take your pick.
You don’t consider Newt’s adultery a transgression? Is that what you are saying here?

I am not sure what your position is.
Are you against divorce?
You seem unable to understand that, instead, you claim that salvation comes from physical separation only. If Newt and Calista have asked for forgiveness for all their sins and keep the spirit of Christ in their hearts from that point, they both are regarded as innocent and new. Therefore, their marriage is as righteous as are those who have been married in virtue to one person their entire life.
To claim otherwise, is the true meaning of a hypocrite who known nothing about Christianity or it's true doctrine.
I is equally hypocritical to claim that because you are Catholic, you have a “Right” to judge others, Catholics or otherwise. In all Biblical Law, there is no such Right.
If you still make that ridiculous claim then quote to all of us, the exact Scripture from the New Testament that proves it.
OTOH, if Marianne was really meeting arms dealers in France behind his back, I could sorta see where he might want to bail out of that relationship.
