There once was an old man of Lyme Who married three wives at a time, When asked 'Why a third?' He replied, 'One's absurd! And bigamy, Sir, is a crime!' (William Cosmo Monkhouse. See Amoris Laetitia for details.)
Queeritur: But what about same-sex couples? They cannot have their civil union blessed even in private by a priest because "God does not and cannot bless sin..." Asking for a friend, you understand. CE: Oh shut up, Jimbo. Why do you have to bring everything back to the subject of homosexuality? Which word of "God does not and cannot bless sin" do you find difficult? LGBTSJQ: Beast!
Quaeritur: I am a very high-profile Catholic, founder of the traditionalist blog Five Peter One, which brings me in a small income that helps me maintain my family of thirty-nine children. Admittedly, I haven't been to church since 1981. Today my priest said "I'm sorry, Mr Kojak, we can't marry your same-sex pair of cats in a church. Your blog isn't as spiritually nourishing as Eccles's - I'd happily marry his same-sex pair of cats if he wished me to." Should I sue him? CE: Isn't that the American answer to all problems? Ask Fr Altman if he can help you raise a few million dollars.
