There are no problems in these areas of overlap as long as civil laws harmonize with divine laws and liberties. There is some overlap between God's law, and the laws of many human governments, on the subjects of marriage and divorce. However, mistakes are made when people attempt to apply civil law definitions to divine concepts, or when they attempt to interpret scripture from a civil law prejudice. These attempts at comparison are doomed to fail for a number of reasons, but for now, I wish to emphasize the fixedness of God's law in contrast with the fluidity of man's laws. In the US there are almost as many different divorce laws as there are states.
Reciprocity laws mean there is no uniform procedure for obtaining a divorce.
This is exactly why so many divorces are obtained in Las Vegas. Their liberal divorce laws, coupled with state reciprocity laws, have traditionally led many people to the state of Nevada when they want a quick and easy divorce. These divorces are granted by the state of Nevada to people who reside in other states. These divorces will be granted regardless of the reason , regardless of whether or not the divorced party has any knowledge of the divorce, and regardless of whether or not the divorced person consents to the divorce. This fact demonstrates to what extent human laws contradict divine laws on the subject of marriage and divorce.
