Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Sounds like religious hooey and shouldn't be anywhere near our legal institutions
Sounds like you need the government to keep women from leaving you...
Just what that sounds like, just saying
I don't know why you people keep engaging these morons, it's clear that he is a troll, a conservative, or the standard combination of the 3.
I feel bad for whoever that is. A person that demands devotion rarely deserves it.
How confident are you that she wouldn't have left you in those 20 years if you weren't married? If your confidence is high, then why do you think marriage needs to be hard to dissolve? If it's low, I think my point is pretty clear in that case.
People view relationships as too disposable, therefore the government should lock them into relationships that aren't working, for any reason from drifting apart to not being able to demonstrate the legal standard for physical abuse. Got it, sounds totally reasonable and not at all like you're a fucking lunatic.
The problem is when Daddy is beating Mommy and the court doesn’t believe her because she’s suffering from “hysteria”.
Gross.
So, then why don’t you just not get divorced and let other people do whatever they want?
What you got against the extended family? If you're trying to be truly Biblical, you should have your parents and grandparents and adult children and your grandkids all living together!
It is sacrosanct. As are other relationships built on love and/or respect. If there’s no longer love or respect there, it’s just cruel and dumb to force the people to stay together just bc they once had different feelings.
Would you like to be held to a contract for the rest of your life that you signed when you were 25?
Oh no, not my nuclear famirinos!
And who decides who you should give your devotion to? Wait, you don't have to answer, your entire message is just completely deranged
