African Marriage Doesn’t Need the Church

Imagine my holy hang-up when a parish prescribes principles for neo-nubian nuptials: dwindled dowries, laundered lists, ‘liposucked’ linguists and alcohol alternatives. Church, stay out of African marriages. You have your own mysterious matrimony. We can pray without the Paternoster.

    Sensible members of the church will
    a. wholly ignore this
    b. go get married at other places (you don't need a pastor to go sign the marriage registry)
    c. Find another more sensible church
    d. all of the above.
