We are much too accepting of divorce, but you won't see many churches in the US willing to kick out divorced members.

The Catholic Church does not accept civil divorce. It is why there must be a Church annulment that proves that the marriage was never valid in the first place.

Having said that, I do believe that the acceptance of divorce (generally speaking) was one of the precursors to the legalization of gay marriage. One part of the slippery slope that is the ruin of traditional families.
