You don't have to be religious. It's a matter of character.

Eta: I better clarify this right now, before I am accused of saying everyone who goes through a divorce is a person of low character.

Shit happens. That is the one universal truth. But taking a commitment made to someone (if the term "marriage" is a stumbling block), a commitment that is, supposedly, a commitment of the sharing of souls, a life partner, the other half that completes you, as frivolously as "gave it a shot, babe, and you weren't scratching the itch" shows very little character. Buck up and admit you made a mistake, that you weren't ready for commitment, rather than debase the idea of commitment.
