For better or worse.

In sickness and in health.

The Bible states it's only OK for having an unfaithful spouse.

Terminally ill? Mentally ill? Addiction to drugs? AIDS? Simple answers to simple questions?

I could never walk away from her no matter what.

The essence of the marriage vows is this: You will remain monogamously committed to one another until you are separated by death. Pretty unambiguous.

But my wife of 48 years has a cold, so if sickness is an out....

Congressional Representative Gnewt Gingrich did that. His wife was on her deathbed dying of cancer and Gnewt divorced her and married his campaign aide.

That's why Gnewt can never run for president. Nobody will vote for a turd of a human being.

Gore did the same.

If she’s ill from contracting an STD from your best friend you might be ok.

I didn’t give his wife an std. Unless her name was Mrs JustAGuy1. I may have left something behind there.

I don't recall Tipper being sick. Seemed to me she wouldn't rub his chakra's.

 

[sparky]

the whole 'til death do you part' gig always kinda made me think......

Answer is “it’s situational”. However if you have to ask it’s wrong.

Not a chance, she has better taste than to even look at you.
