Yes it has changed, that's very true. But the "loophole" of divorce has been around since the birth of the protestant religion. I think. I'm not 100% sure but let's just say for a long time. And since that time it's had a negative connotation attached with it. I think it does anyway.
I was watching a show & these actors went around the table saying who they were according to these sexual abbreviations & what pronoun they like to be called. So I had to stop & research all these abbreviations. They were new to me & I thought, wow, that's awesome that they feel comfortable enough in society to talk about this openly & we as a society are starting to accept this. I started to read some articles that confirmed this. What a great change in really, a short amount of time.
So I was thinking if this change could happen in such a huge area as sexual identification is there a chance to overhaul our idea of marriage & how it's portrayed in society.
Now the religious part of marriage I'm not sure will ever change. Catholics still believe that your marriage must be annulled to continue in the catholic faith. But this is just one religion I am familiar with. And I think this also changes according to who you talk to for information. I do not know how the other religions view marriage &/or divorce.
I'm just wondering if more "loopholes" could be added to it to make it more convenient for all....if they choose it.
