Alex/NF -- Hate speech is covered by policy and confirmed by Admin.. Report it and it should be removed. Note: I am unsure of time from report to removal. If you find there are issues with that timeline, then I think that is a different topic, and one that should/could be had. Unsure if you want to spin it up.
On Sunday we had a guest speaker from Interval House. Interval House is a shelter network for abused women. The topic was a new programme developed by the Ontario Government called Neighbours, Friends and Families.
The programme was created after an annual review of deaths in the province revealed that women are most likely to be in danger of being severely injured or killed within the two weeks of separation from an abusive partner.
I find myself being torn in a bunch of different directions. I am looking to get divorced, but coming from a Mennonite background, I have heard all my life that it is wrong, God does not condone it. I have been told that even though I get a divorce, I will still be married to my husband in the eyes of God, and that remarriage is strictly prohibited and would be seen as adultery. Before people start posting responses to this, allow me to explain why I am getting divorced.
Long story short, here is a timeline of what has happened:
My friend recently starting dating a new guy from college; this is her first year. I recently found out from another friend of mine that this boyfriend is abusive, controlling, and overall a terrible person; she knows this because her step-sister and another friend of hers dated the same guy. I have talked to him before and he seems so nice so I'm scared to tell my friend from college about what my other friend said. I do not want to harm our friendship. What should I do?
