My dad left it because he became a Marxist, my mom left it because she took it really seriously and finally couldn't accept their "saved and lost" perspective on humanity. That everyone who is not a Christian is going to be annihilated(her church doesn't believe in the eternal suffering, you just regular die, while Christians get eternal heaven and this is actually what Christ said. Catholics just made up all that hell stuff) while the Christians live in paradise for eternity.
But forget whatever religion or whatever. I remember it sticking with me from the GoT show about how they present the honor, fealty, whatever. An oath can not be broken. That's what the marriage ceremony is. An oath, usually called a vow. You gather every single person you care about in your life to witness you commit this oath.
The oath goes:
>“I, , take thee, , to be my wedded wife (husband), to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part.”
To me "till death do us part" is a blood oath. It means "on pain of death." I would never make an oath lightly, I mean not a completely voluntary one like the marriage vows. I just hate liars. I had my own personal revelations about lying and I try to never lie. I'm very candid and honest.
Jesus also said divorce is forbidden for anything but adultery.
