Thoughts on Marriage

I was at a wedding last summer and I was shocked. I was never at a full-service Catholic wedding (or even a Catholic church for that matter). It was amazing that it starts off with preaching, etc etc, and then the Bishop or whatever the hell he was says "And now, we interrupt this service to join these two together in marriage." It's like "Oh shit, that's right, this is for a wedding... it almost slipped my mind!" So they did the wedding part of it, which was about 1/4th of the service at most, and then they had communion in which they so gently refuse to give it to ANYONE except fellow Catholics. I was tempted to go up and get some crackers and act like cookie monster, stuffing them in my face ARRUMM ARUUMM ARRUMM C IS FOR COOKIE! But I restrained myself, the service ended, and I rejoiced in the Lord for not being Catholic.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I thought the classes were really lame before I went, and was peeved that I had to go, but it helped me mature and know more about my wife's faith. It inspired me so much that now I am entering the Catholic Church as well!

Why are you adopting a theological perspective based on how they aided you in getting to know your wife better? It's like scientology. They may help you achieve a more positive, affirmative outlook on life, but that doesn't mean you should believe our origins came from an alien warlord who flew to earth on a jetplain, buried us in a volcano, made it explode with hydrogen bombs and then tried to brainwash us with a giant 3d movie.



There's nowhere I can't reach.
