New article on the MacFarlane Case – Catholics and ‘no-fault’ divorce

Catholics and ‘no-fault’ divorce: “In the MacFarlane case, the attorney for the father noted in opening remarks that this case was about ‘rendering to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.’ His words accurately describe the fact that the no-fault divorce system is Caesar allowing judges to determine what is best for children � since no-fault divorce exists � children must be made to accommodate that legal fact. Children are just one of the things rendered to Caesar by no-fault divorce.

No-fault divorce reaches beyond home-schooling and attempts to control the religious free speech of the non-breaching party. In this case, the psychologist assigned to the case commented negatively on the wife who had allegedly told one of the children about divorce, leading to the child saying, ‘Daddy broke the family.’

Of course, such a statement is an absolute no-no in no-fault divorce, which maintains the strife is nobody’s fault. Since one of the key aspects of no-fault divorce is to ensure that nobody is blamed, any shadow of casting blame labels one party as the ‘judgmental’ one. Consequently, that party is likely to lose parenting time and parenting control. Bai was punished severely.”
