Jay wrote and asked what my problem was with Zane's post on marriage and why did I feel it conflicted with my own life. Yes, my ex-husband was an adulterer and yes, that is supposed to be grounds for divorce (at least in the eyes of some Christians). However, if you will go back and read Zane's post, it was my impression that he was also stating that no matter *what* the reason for divorce, I should not remarry unless my ex-husband dies. This is what is offensive to me and I cannot agree with. There are many other Christians that do not agree with it, either and I have heard from many of them. My suggestion is simply that if this is what you believe, don't ever get a divorce. You have to follow your own beliefs and understandings. I did. On another note, RE: Madalyn O'Hair That note was given to me by my best friend who asked me to share it. I was very busy, and although usually very skeptical, typed it up and sent it off. I assumed she had received it from reliable sources and trusted her knowledge. As it turned out, she had just picked it up from an elderly woman in her office and knew nothing off it. So I really apologize, the jokes on me and next time I will be more inquisitive and discriminating. (just like Dad taught me! ;> ) Love, Elizabeth
