Domestic Relations Discussions
Hello All,
It appears that there are a good number of discussions started concerning the issue of divorce, family relations, and domestic-relations-related topics in general. Personally, I haven't seen much benefit in all of these since almost all of them lead back to the answer of "Please contact your local priest/bishop for guidance." That answer is perfectly appropriate since we simply end up just laying out how we may think that the Church harmed us directly or indirectly. While writing out our sad story online for others to read may make us feel good as those readers will probably sympathize with us, doing so doesn't change the reality of what had happen to us and doesn't help us grow in Christianity or closer to God.
That being said, I will close ALL domestic-relations-related discussions, and delete all future ones.
