I hadn't thought of it that way. I was thinking more along the lines that no one ever really knows the true dynamics of a marriage except the people in the marriage.

Who hasn't seen what "everyone" thought was the perfect marriage suddenly dissolve into a bitter protracted divorce reminiscent of the "War of the Roses?" And then there are the marriages "everyone" knows must surely have been made in Hell that survive year after year, decade after decade.

Absent ample supporting evidence, it seems to me that speculation about such things as motive and intent serves little useful purpose.

JMO. Your mileage may vary, of course.

Conservatives believe in the sanctity of marriage, and feel sorrow and regret when a marriage ends. Indeed, this belief is not limited to conservatives -- I believe it is deeply engrained in humankind. Indeed, true conservatives do not divorce except under extreme circumstances, and even then, regretfully. Christ commanded us to cleave to one another.

Making a public spectacle of your divorce is reprehensible, cheap, and tawdry.

Exactly the kind of person that belongs on the Jerry Springer show and Oprah, seeking public sympathy for his pain.
