indissolublist, a. and n. Eccl.|ɪndɪˈsɒljʊblɪst|
Also indissolubilist.
[f. indissoluble a. + -ist.]
A. adj. Of, pertaining or adhering to, a belief in the indissolubility of marriage.
1958Listener 21 Aug. 263/1 There are those who maintain an indissolublist position on the grounds that marriage involves a life-long contract, which is by definition terminable only by death. 1971Marriage, Divorce & Church (S.P.C.K.) 5 Resolutions 92 and 94 of 1948..marked the fullest development of the indissolubilist view of marriage. 1984Sunday Tel. 22 Jan. 10/2 The basis on which these proposals rest..has never been recognised at diocesan level. Until that is done, the true strength of the indissolublist cause will not be known.
B. n. One who believes in the indissolubility of marriage, and who therefore opposes the remarriage of divorced people in church.
1978Church Times 19 May 11/1 The Root Commission..produced a unanimous report... The Lichfield Commission..included one well-known ‘indissolubilist’. As a result the Lichfield Report gives, I think, fairer coverage to opponents of remarriage in church. 1983Daily Tel. 14 Nov. 14/6 If correctly reported, God appears to be a bit of an ‘indissolublist’—hideous word made current by the Synod. 1984Sunday Tel. 22 Jan. 10/1 There is a small core of indissolublists—those who believe it is contrary to the teaching of the Bible and Christian tradition for the church officially to remarry divorced people. |
