Talaq Talaq Talaq

If I were a Muslim in India and uttered the word "talaq" (which means divorce) three times, I would be divorced from my wife. It does not matter if I utter the word in my sleep, while inebriated or in a fit of anger. Say the word three times and we're kaput.

After being divorced, we can get back together again only if she marries a man of at least 70 years and lives with him for one day.

This sounds as weird as Warren Jeffs and his Fundamental Church of Latter Day Saints.

Does religion make some people crazy? Especially people who have some kind of power in a particular 'religion'.
