I, Bowman in Wed. Journal today. Married priesthood first, women’s second, for strategic reasons if nothing else:
The married priest is more likely to see the woman’s viewpoint, and a married priesthood is a much more realistic goal.
Respondeth one John Butch Murtagh from Oak Park to the first part:
Nice try Jim, but if marriage is the key to understand[ing] the other sex, why are there so many divorces?
To which I, Bowman:
Nice try, John, but if divorce demonstrates misogynism and/or misandry, why for so many does remarriage signal the triumph of hope over experience, as The Great Cham said long ago?
