I read that, DA. However, it came across to me as his personal "issues" with her as a saint--not an exhaustive list of reasons for the divorce.
I would agree, generally speaking, that a lack of submission to authority and immodest clothing are problems for a Christian woman. Wouldn't you? I'm not supportive of men abusing that authority, and I'm not supportive of a husband forcing his wife to dress modestly. Those things should be independent choices.
From a woman's standpoint, though, if I'm trying to please God, I think that includes modesty in behavior & appearance, and submitting to my husband's authority in the home.
In that regard, as I said earlier, I'm not willing to give Ms. Driver a free pass simply because she won her court case.
