  • This is a very interesting question ... not because it happens a lot ... but because it helps illustrate the principles regarding the nature of marriage.

    Yes, this reviewer seemed to think the same:


    See also Fr. Ford's article "Marriage: Its Meaning and Purpose" in which he analyzes and refutes a new theology of marriage.

    Despite the title, the nature of virginity factors very little into the work. It really is a good overview of everything that pertains to the essence of marriage; it even refutes those who consider love essential to marriage.
