Mark adds Divorce to his series on marriage. It is well worth reading.
I, too, am a child of divorce, but I am also a grandchild of divorce. It really does affect one for life.
Mark thinks that the current crisis in marriage started about 40 years ago (no-fault divorce). I think it actually goes back even farther, to the same movement that lead to the Anglican church's acceptance of contraception. The 'free love' movement caught a large percentage of the 'intelligentsia' starting around 1890.
We have over a hundred years of concerted efforts by some to remove the Holy from Matrimony.
