“From the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female’ and said ‘for this
reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined with his wife, and
the two shall become one flesh’. So they are no longer two but one flesh.
Therefore, what God has joined together, let no man put asunder.”
Matthew 19:4-7
