Another one is Jesus’s strict prohibition of divorce and remarriage, except (in some versions) under very narrow circumstances. The Protestant “scripture only” people are very eager to dismiss or ignore that tough teaching.

Most of the “scripture only” people I know take a very dim view of divorce. It is the protestant church who have abandoned the scripture that are OK with divorce.

What's the matter, you can't bring yourself to quote the verse??? It's except for fornication, not 'very narrow circumstances'...

Looking at 21 translations that ALL have some form of fornication in the verse, including your own Catholic Douay bible, I see that the only one missing the word or phrase is your perverted NAB...

So you are wrong, divorce and remarriage is allowed by Jesus due to an unfaithful spouse...

Show us where divorce rates are better for Catholics than the rest of the world.

Nor do non-Catholics churches sanction marriage breakup under the guise of *annulments*.
