Who initiated it isn’t important.

Oh, it's very important, indeed. Wyman divorced Reagan because she disagreed with his political ambitions. The two didn't match. That's hardly along the lines of committing adultery or Reagan initiating it for selfish reasons.

To many Christians, divorce is a sin, no matter who started it.

Sorry, you're wrong with this blanket opinion.

Apply the standards fairly and equally or drop the argument altogether.

Dude, there is no double standards. Rudy's divorce and Reagan's divorce are as opposite as temperatures on the North Pole and the Equator.

“Sorry, you’re wrong with this blanket opinion.”

My mother has been divorced twice, and was not allowed to remarry in the Catholic Church because divorce is a sin (the same for my uncle with his second wife). My wife was divorced, and had been drummed out of her Baptist congregation, when I met her (this in my first, and so far as I’m conerned ONLY marriage).

Neither is, in my opinion, a person of weak character who cannot be trusted to make decisions that affect my life and that of my family.

It’s not a “blanket opinion” when I’ve seen it first hand and know it exists.

Yes...Rudy cheating on his wife with a woman that would become his new wife. I would say that’s just scummy.

Reagan and his wife had difference in where they wanted the relationship to go. He wanted to stay in politics and she didn’t. Unfortunate, but not a big deal (atleast in my point-of-view).
