A friend distraught and in floods of tears called me today. Her daughter has split from her selfish, uncaring husband. ‘’Good”, you might say, as I did, but no, it isn’t good because my friend is a God-fearing Baptist and now fervently believes that because her beloved daughter vowed before God to remain with the man she married until death, she is destined for hell - and nothing but nothing will convince her otherwise. She is in misery.

Is religion damaging? Yes - indeed it is.

Could It Be?

Creation / Evolution.

Theland, I post for those who might find my ideas worth investigating, those who might have the capacity to appreciate them. I don't hold out much hope for the others and none at all for those whose prioritise belief over understanding.

//In the case you have described, the bible does not forbid divorce//
Scripture please?

//Your friend has been lied to by misled people//
Scripture please?

//The bible does not support that view //
Scripture please?

The Bible nowhere endorses divorce except on the grounds of adultery. And since women cannot divorce men, then the idea is mute anyway!
