TV 'Evangelist' Pat Robertson has recently come under fire and condemnation recently, for his advice to a caller to his show, that it is ok to divorce someone who has Alzheimer's Disease...
His views are, that the disease is 'like death' anyway, so this, in his opinion, should be ok and allowed for a person to be divorced from said spouse; but he added that there should be a care program set up for the afflicted person before the divorce...Rrrrright...
Hmm, so the good old marriage vows of 'Til death do us part', or 'in sickness and health', 'for better or worse', according to Pat are now no longer applicable? One wonders what would be next on the alienation from one's spouse; Cancer? or some other terminal disease or affliction?
For those of you who know me, yes, I have been married and divorced more than once, so I am certainly not the first one to be in line to throw any stones; but really, divorce is far too easy these days...and sadly so...
But also, shouldn't there be some end in sight for more and more and MORE 'allowable' divorce excuses?
Just...Thoughts...
