True that the only biblical reason for divorce is adultery, but are the 70 to 
80% of married women supposed to be married to an alcoholic, drug abuser, 
abuser, child molester or murderer?

So if the woman gets away from that does that make her not a bible believing 
christian?

My point is, not all christians believe 100% in what the bible says, but they 
are still bible believing christians in my oppinion.
