This is another fundamental misunderstanding repeated often in this thread. There is more to Catholicism than what's in the Bible. I think people must be getting Catholics confused with other sects.

So is getting a divorce, I know devout Catholics that got one. Lots of things are immoral, doesn't mean we have to forbid them completely, a certain level of immorality is tolerable. Accepting that is part of being Catholic imho.
More apparent misunderstanding. Legal divorce is sometimes an unfortunate necessity- however, this does not terminate the Catholic marriage. Therefore they cannot remarry in the Catholic church unless they can prove grounds for an anullment.

So, if you know a Catholic that got divorced and remarried they are not "devout" since it clearly goes against Church teaching.
