The three religions have remarkable differences in their attitudes towards divorce. Christianity abhors divorce altogether. The New Testament unequivocally advocates the indissolubility of marriage. It is attributed to Jesus to have said, "But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, causes her to become adulteress, and anyone who marries the divorced woman commits adultery" (Matthew 5:32).
This uncompromising ideal is, without a doubt, unrealistic. It assumes a state of moral perfection that human societies have never achieved. When a couple realizes that their married life is beyond repair, a ban on divorce will not do them any good. Forcing ill-mated couples to remain together against their wills is neither effective nor reasonable. No wonder the whole Christian world has been obliged to sanction divorce.
Why did Jesus choose adultery, especially for a woman, to get a divorce and freedom paper from her husband's slavery?
There are many other reasons for divorce other than adultery.
Should the woman remain besieged in suffering with her husband until she commits adultery until the husband releases her?
Even if Jesus explains the holiness of marriage, then So why only adultery?
This is an invitation to women to commit adultery to end the marriage
Where is mercy and humanity for the absolute man and the divorced woman?
Where are their natural right to life?
And if the absolute man and the divorced woman want to marry, they will be called the word adulterer
Why does each of them liveOutcast in society and cannot marry?
