Pharisees came up to [Jesus] and tested him by asking, “Is it lawful to divorce one’s wife for any cause?” He answered, “Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.” They said to him, “Why then did Moses command one to give a certificate of divorce and to send her away?” He said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery.”

I’m not saying abortion isn’t heinous.
But I didnt’t make the rules.
Yes, I understand and agree. Those are the rules and that is what was said. But God didn’t say he didn’t know what divorce was. And many of the divorces I worked on were horrible situations. Marriage done with two people who are both givers is a good thing. Marriage where one person is a giver and one is a taker is a horrible thing. Marriage where one wants to dominate is a bad thing. Marriage where the children are being molested or beaten is a bad thing. If you are talking about theory, you are 100 percent correct. The reality is far more complicated. Then you get a lot of cases where one or the other party is ready to ditch the other but doesn’t want to share the marital estate so plans a murder.
