Are All Young Catholics Qualified for Marriage?

No, sodomites, the mentally ill, and folks who attend the Novus Ordo should avoid marriage.

I truly hope this is satire, or I'm all for disallowing bald men to blog. And if this upsets you. it should, because it is the identical thought process you are using for marriage.

Chris Muniee

Bald men might consider shaving their heads to avoid the dreaded "horse-shoe hair" or take my advice (if they're 35+) and eschew the courtship scene. No, this doesn't upset me.

I take it isn't satire then?

@Chris Muniee So the 99% of the worlds population that does not have access to the Latin Mass should not get married? Is this a Bill Gates population control tactic?

Chris Muniee

Yes, this is much better than having all these disaster "marriages." What they should do, of course, is become Catholic, pressure the few traditional clergy to say the Latin Mass despite the apostate bishops, or otherwise seek refuge in the underground network of Masses (if it still exists). I also suggested that this problem may go away soon once we reach the Triumph of Our Lady. In other words, marriage discerners might lay low for a while.
This is not population control, but the only way to address problems. It is evil to attend the Novus Ordo, and if you have your wedding at one, you will have offended God while petitioning Him to bless your marriage. Such a suggestion seems absurd.

@Chris Muniee While I love the Latin Mass, I think that saying that attending the Novus Ordo is "evil" sounds very protestant to me. Were all of the Masses said before the 1500's evil? Are the Masses of all of the other Rites of the Catholic Church in union with Rome evil? How about the Euchristic miracles that have occured with hosts consecrated during Novus Ordo Masses, are they evil? Did Christ himself say the Latin Mass at the last supper? Perhaps you should step back a little. We love the Latin Mass and pray that we may continue to have access to it, but saying anything else is evil seems to be without foundation. And I with you pray for the Triumph of Our Lady.

Well, it seems to me, if, to marry, men should not be fat or short, then women should not be fat or ugly.

Chris Muniee

Niether should be ugly, men who are short should re-think their chances with marriage, and women can be somewhat more fat than man (for reproductive reasons).

occasnltrvlr

Reproductive reasons? A woman with minimal body fat can quite healthily conceive and bear, and a man with an "overabundance" of body fat can impregnate, and support a family. I'm not suggesting being fat is a good thing, I just don't see the discrimination by sex.
Similarly, if a woman might be inhibited from a good marriage by a man being short, then a man might just as easily be inhibited by a woman who is fat, mightn't he?

Concerning the last point - this view is eerily similar to Francis who opined "most marriages are invalid." See: Updated: Most marriages today are invalid, Pope …

Chris Muniee

Yes, but Antipope Bergoglio has no idea why they would be invalid. I, however, explained precisely why that may be the case in several instances (i.e., evil and dishonest intentions while making the marriage vows).
