I recentally photographed a wedding. I was an outdoor wedding at a city park gazebo and they used a "rent a minister" kinda deal. What they did was flip thru the yellow pages to find someone to officiate the wedding and make it legal like.
Anyhow, I was told before the ceremony that there was an irate grandfather who was not happy with the location or the miniser and he may make a scene durning the wedding. I was asked to pay him no mind.
Come to find out he was upset with the fact that his grand daughter's wedding was not in a church and really upset that the minister was a woman.
He actually stood up and objected to the union of the man and woman. :shock:
His reasoning was that the marriage was starting in sin because of the woman minister. He quoted scripture fron Corinthians and Titus.
I went home and read a bit.
After my reading, I was wondering how many of you folk might agree with the grandfather.
