How does religion mesh with divorce?

Many countries in Europe, such as France, once prohibited divorce, as it is not condoned by the Roman Catholic Church. Sometimes citizens travelled to other jurisdictions to obtain a divorce. No Catholic Church will remarry divorced persons, unless they previously have their marriage annulled, which is only possible in some circumstances. In Islam, divorce is allowed. Islam considers marriage to be a legal contract; and the act of obtaining a divorce is essentially the act of legally dissolving the contract. Judaism has always accepted divorce as a fact of life, though an unfortunate one: eg, see Deuteronomy chapters 22 and 24. Judaism generally maintains that it is better for a couple to divorce than to remain together in a state of bitterness and strife. It is said that peace in the home is a desirable state.
