"It’s strictly a man-made concept to avoid the stigma of a divorce."

There is no Biblical basis for marriages against ones consent. There is no Biblical basis for marriages involving children. There is no Biblical basis for marriages involving the retarded. There is no Biblical basis for marriages between siblings and otherwise incestuous relationships. There is no Biblical basis for marriages that involve polygamy or bigamy. There is no Biblical basis for marriages involving fraud or deception. Yet all of these are causes for a declaration by the Church that the marriages were never valid.

May your everyday be like Easter Morning and your every night like Christmas Eve.

2 Timothy 4:1-4 I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: 2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. 3 For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, 4 and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths.

And so the Catholic church has. It is OBVIOUS that you don't know Scripture, which leaves you vulnerable to all kinds of deceit from the teachings of man.
