Christian churches should not perform marriages for people who have had certain types of divorces. If a couple had a “no fault” divorce, a solid, conservative church should not conduct a marriage ceremony for them again. They can get married in front of a judge or other civil service.

You say you don’t want churches to remarry folks who get a “no-fault” divorce. But when my wife had an affair and moved out, my lawyer told me it made no difference in a settlement how I filed. As long as that doesn’t change, most divorces for cause will probably be labeled as no-fault.

And my own 2 cents on the matter is that everyone is just way too accepting of divorce. People go around breaking their vows, behave as cruel as possible to their soon to be ex-spouse and mess up their kid’s lives big time. And what consequence do they pay? Hey its all cool is what I found out. I just wanna be happy....we grew apart....I’m not in love with you anymore.....I didn’t mean to fall in love with another man/woman....its better for the kids to have their parents happy and divorced than fighting and married....these are just some of the common sayings that go with divorce. A large portion of our population will support ppl with the above reasons. As for the counter; I don’t see it. Causing your marriage to break up doesn’t seem to have much consequence anymore.
