We disagree. I think the greater good is served if people can get out of a bad marriage. To me, a bad marriage is far worse than a rising divorce rate.

It’s not simply a rising divorce rate that is the consequence. The real consequence is the abolition of marriage itself. Marriage is kind of a contract, and if it can be simply dissolved on a whim without consequence, then it’s not really a contract at all. Therefore, what we are calling “marriage” doesn’t even meet the definition anymore.

In order to allow a few people out of “bad marriages”, we must destroy marriage for everyone else, which is what we have done.
