First of all, Pentecostalism isn't bad, and I'm offended by the implication.
Pentecostalism, in a nut shell, is part of the protestant movement. They interpret the Bible (except for the obviously symbolic, ex: revelations) literally and believe that everything in it is true. Also a large emphasis is put on the Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost and the babtism therein (as told in the book of Acts) and the gifts of the spirit, including speaking in tounges.
For more information go to www.encarta.com and use the dictionary to look up Pentecostal or www.wikipedia.org and search Pentecostalism.
This is what I believe. Please be kind and don't insult it. ^.^

Sorry, I didn't mean to insult it, I was simply trying to express my distaste for the strictness which that particular branch entails. I love the beliefs for the most part, it's just the strictness placed on dress code that I have a problem with. but this isn't quite the topic for me to ramble on about it in. If you'd like we can discuss this some place more private, PMs perhaps or the religion topic if you'd like but not here.

Divorce.... Well there really needs to be a good reason for it. I don't like the idea, unless one partner is trying to leave an abusive marriage, then I see a reason for it. Divorce ruins younger kids' lives, older kids I guess can deal with it a bit better. It has a terrible impact on people. Some people even kill themselves over it. But it really depends on the people and the problems they're having I guess.

I say divorce is okay. For reason that relate to marital problems. Like if neither spouse in the relationship want to work on a problem in a marriage; then it would be appropriate for reasons like that, and escalating problems.
@Within: A marriage with unresolved conflict, proud parents, and no way to end it can also ruin younger kids lives.

I believe if you are rushed into a marriage and you are truly are not happy with that person over time then it would be justifiable

Over the last three years I've noticed some of my bestfriends either (A) getting married to fast (B) having kids to soon or in most cases (C) both. And all of those friends jumped into those situations WAY to fast. As a result: I'm no longer friends with one of them, because her husband is a drunk and a stoner regardless of the affects it has on their relationship and their daughter; one of my other bestfriends is divorced with two kids torn in the aftermath; and my other bestfriend is struggling to keep his wife by his side because she isnt sure she made the right choice.
I believe that if people waited to get married at least a year or so and have kids till they had been together for at least five years there wouldn't be so much divorce or even if they did divorce soon at least kids wouldn't be involved, and I am aware some people divorce after several decades but that is less common than divorce before 10 years. (In my opinion pre-marital sex is up to the couple's religious and moral beliefes).
