Furthermore, Protestants are the last ones that should be throwing stones over divorce. Find me one deacon board without a divorced member (let alone Elders, if they even have them) and I'll find you fifty that do....all of which contravenes Scripture. Perhaps you missed the article that began this thread, it was the "author" who started throwing the stones over divorce and what began the drawn out "discussion" that we still find ourselves in. He said:
Also, as a Protestant, whether you're a minister or lay person, you are free to marry and divorce any number of times. It's hard to see that Jesus would be happy with these two facts. Since I am the kind of person who always likes to find the answer to any question that's important, I decided to look into Catholicism.
That may help you to see that there are going to be responses and disagreements when one group is smeared over issues of which the favored group is also guilty.
