How in the world does that make any sense? The guy is a nutcase. Oh, and he thinks he is going to be a GA someday, so he is even crazier than that. He will be one of those guys in 30 years that starts calling himself the prophet and picks up a bunker next to Tex's.
I think what BDB is saying is very wise. IMO there is a high level of naivete involved in those who are ONLY making this about "sin" and therefore would ignore the situation altogother. Having said that, you are right: him asking the bishop illustrates that this couple will have much bigger problems in their marriage than her past history!
