Torn

I'm torn by two aspects of this story about an unfortunate Islamic couple's divorce in India. On the one hand I realize that it is a real shame to have authoritarian leaders dictating personal matters to the point where they don't even care what is moral, only what seems to them to meet religious law. But on the other hand I envy anyone living in a society where it is this easy to get a divorce satisfactory to the religious authorities! It's a little more complicated in Christian circles. It's no wonder it's against the law to convert from Islam to Christianity!
