Christianity, Divorce, Adultery And Shmiras Einayim

Yoshke is quoted in the Book of Matthew: 

“It has been said, ‘Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.’ But I tell you that [I know better than God and therefore annul His law and thus] anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, makes her the victim of adultery, and anyone who marries a divorced woman commits adultery."

Interesting that he argues with Hashem [!!]. That is the theme of that chapter. He reportedly says “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished." Then he argues with the Torah on various issues. 

Besides that - aren't a LOT of Christians sinful - לשיטתם. A] They get divorced and remarry all the time [except, as far as I know - Catholics. Officially...]. B] They clearly don't keep "The Law" [i.e. the Torah]. 

And it doesn't bother them that their own "savior" was born of an aduterous reltionship between his mother and [לשיטתם] god??

And why don't more adulterous Christian women use that story when they get pregnant from another man - "It was god". I mean - prove it wasn't, right! 

Asking for my friend Matthew ["Mordechai" in Hebrew]. 

---

In that chapter he says that if one is stumbles in Shmiras Einayim - he should GOUGE HIS EYE OUT!!! [Whoa!!]

Given the number of people in the "Bible Belt" who watch pornography on line  - multiple studies find ‘Bible Belt’ states show highest overall rates of porn watching - shouldn't we see a lot of gouged out eyes on their streets?? It is pretty safe to say that approximately 100 percent of Christian men [maybe more...] are not careful about what they see - especially given the way the average non-Jewish woman dresses.
