Divorce

            
             In the bible it talks about divorce in many different ways then in the media but there are still some area's that are the same. In the Corinthians chapter of the bible it says that I wife must not leave here husband but if she does leave she must remain single or go back to him, it also says that a husband must not leave his wife. In the Deuteronomy chapter of the bible it is says that if a man divorces a woman and she leaves and marries another man and her second husband also divorces her or he dies she may not remarry the former husband. In the Matthew chapter of the bible it says that a man can divorce his wife by giving her a letter of divorce and a man who divorces his wife, unless she has been unfaithful, courses himself to commit adultery.
             In the media it says that divorce is a very bad thing and that it is not to be done unless total necessary. For a married couple to divorce they must they must get a lawyer and you fight to get 50% of your assets.
             Both of my uncles have been through divorce, I feel sorry that they don't get to see there children very often. One of my uncles sought guidance from his minister but unfortunately it did not help.
             I feel that magazines make divorce sound like it is an ok thing to do because they show all of the Hollywood star's doing it. Magazines and media do not help people tiring to get through divorce.
             In conclusion I would like to say that the Bible and Media have something's in common about divorce but there are still a few things that are different.
