Today we say that Catholic priests don't preach against contraception because so many in their congregations are guilty of it, and would quit coming back to church.
I suspect that many preachers don't preach against divorce because so many in their congregations are divorced and would leave, along with their contributions.
Or could it be that many Evangelical churches are populated with ex-Catholics who left because they did not want the annulment hassle?

One day he came running back in and said “guys, I just heard President Kennedy was shot by a sniper”
