Is my statement "By divorce, I will never watch movies on television again, ever" considered an intention for repetition? And must the intention be expressed with the word "whenever" to signify repetition? And is the renewed intention taken into account immediately after taking the oath? And does divorce occur with doubt about uttering it? And how can I be sure that my wife is not forbidden to me?
