what is the meaning of marriage vow? does it mean a thing to divorced couples?

The statements of oath taken at the wedding ceremony can be likened to a death sentence. When you cruise over the wordings of the oath taken by husbands and wives on the day of their wedding, then, you would recognize that these are very heavy and implicative words. It bothers on issues of life and death.

Marriage vows are not death sentences, only contracts.
If the terms of the contracts are broken. . .people have the rights to void them.
Divorcees and separations are options to void marriage contracts.
No big deal! Not a matter of life and death.
