GOP Candidate Says Women Cause Most Divorces

“Det Bowers, a pastor challenging Lindsey Graham in the South Carolina GOP Senate primary, once blamed women for causing most divorces — even when husbands are unfaithful to their wives,” Politico reports.

“During a sermon on the Book of Peter delivered at the Christ Church of the Carolinas, Bowers said it was an ‘abominable idolatry’ when wives love their children more than their husbands, arguing that’s what causes divorces most of the time. He added that in the ‘vast preponderance’ of situations where men are adulterous, women are to blame because they have showered too much emotion on their children instead of their husbands.”
