The recent letter by Tettamanzi to his believers, beyond the friendly tone, reasserts the catholic doctrine: divorce is morally unconceivable for the church.
I wonder: is it also unconceivable for the natural right, so much dear to teaching church?
Is it also unconceivable for the reason, so much adulated by Ratzinger?
Is it unconceivable for Jesus himself, guarantor and liberal with the women at His time, legally exposed to their husbands-masters moods? Anti-divorce for the sake of the victim, threatened with hunger and prostitution?
