Pat Robertson the onetime Presidential candidate and a
self-proclaimed man of God said that it is okay to divorce your spouse if she
has Alzheimer’s disease. Commenting on
the till death do you part he said Alzheimer’s is sort of like death therefore
it makes it okay to desert your spouse.
I guess maybe he was thinking of Newt Gingrich who divorced his wife on
her death bed. Now the problem comes in
when people might decide it is okay to divorce because their spouse has become paralyzed
or bed ridden with things like ALS. I
guess the theory goes that a disabled spouse isn’t worth their time so just
move on. The real sad part is this man
is supposed to be religious, but the bible he reads from must have a different
meaning when it comes to compassion love and loyalty.
