Please dear Bishop describe the Bible's plan for married life.

The Old Testament especially is filled with multiple wives, concubines, slaves and the like. In the New Testament Jesus is quoted as really saying two things.....one is a man shall leave his family and unite with his wife and that divorce makes them both adulterers.

So if you believe that anything that violates prong one - i.e. man-woman marriage is worthy of an exorcism, then I'm sure you will be announcing your plans to exorcise all those divorcees.

I suspect you will be so much busier with prong #2 since about half if not more marriages in the U.S. end in divorce and heterosexual couples engage in serial monogamy. Fags and lesbians (I can use the term fag because I am a gay may) make up anywhere from 1% to 10% of the population, depending on whose statistics you trust and only a small percentage of them will ever marry.

So I expect the RCC to place Divorce up there with Abortions and Gay Marriage. I expect you will protest all state legislatures to pass laws to stop divorce and will have your minions standing outside the respective courts where divorces are granted with the same signs that you have outside of clinics that provide women's reproductive health care.

When these types speak of discipline and children I immediately suspect them of pedophilia or their own sexual peccadilloes. I am not accusing him of this just saying that my mind immediately raises the question of the individual's own personal history and situation.
