a person should either remain as he was born, or be content with one marriage; for a second marriage is only a specious adulteryPlea for the Christians (AD 177)
So that all who, by human law are twice married, are in the eye of our Master sinners, and those who look upon a woman to lust after her.First Apology
speak evil of no one, nor listen with pleasure to any one who speaks evil of another. But if you listen, you will partake of the sin of him who speaks evil, if you believe the slander which you hear; for believing it, you will also have something to say against your brother. Thus, then, will you be guilty of the sin of him who slanders. For slander is evil and an unsteady demon. It never abides in peace, but always remains in discord. Keep yourself from it, and you will always be at peace with all.https://www.earlychristianwritings.com/text/shepherd.html
