Divorce and Remarriage
Something that has been said of divorce in class, is that you may divorce someone, but you are never unmarried. If there are children involved while you may not be living with your spouse any longer, you are still going to be actively communicating with them so that you can pass the children back and forth as well as finances. 70% of people that get a divorce two years later, wish that they would not have done so. Divorce in my opinion is taken advantage of far more then it should be these days. I think that couples see it as a quick fix, they don't want to deal with the problems that they are facing so they simply quit. I like to think of it like when you are living as a single student with roommates. I have caught myself disagreeing with a roommate but not addressing the problem because I knew that I could just get new roommates after the semester was over. Thinking about it, that is such a pathetic attitude to have. If you go into marriage with the thought that if it doesn't work out or if it isn't fun any more we can just cancel it and try again is so wrong. Especially in the gospel, marriage is an eternal decision.
