I keep hearing about all these "trad chapels" where things like this are said.  All I can say is that people on this forum sure do have a lot of experiences with some demonic "trad chapels".

I don't believe most of these stories.

OP here.

The man said his wife's parents were trying to dictate and control their life. It sounds like they are partly responsible for the divorce. Apparently the woman was a female version of a Momma's Boy. Anyone with a brain knows what a red flag that is (when in-laws inject themselves into a marriage). In-laws failing to know their place (minding their own business, and letting the husband be the head of the new family) can spell death for a marriage. Catholics have known this for centuries. It's even mentioned in many Catholic marriage books published before Vatican II. It was also part of the body of common sense possessed by most Catholic/European cultures and passed down from parents to children.
