"Solution? Marry a sweet-tempered Christian woman, a person of emotional stability, strength, courage in the face of adversity, calm, reverence, and joy. Where do you find such a woman? Well, not in a bar, Joe. There are millions of such women out there and most likely you'll find them in church."

Uhmmmm, hasn't been my experience. It makes a lovely dream, finding one of like precious faith and all, but, like others have posted, women who are regular church attenders are predominantly those who have been wounded and crippled spiritually and are really not any better equipped emotionally to be a loving spouse than any other woman from the general population.

No woman can hurt a man like a nominal (small "c") christian can. They get trained on how to use very personal weaponry on the most vulnerable spots of a guy's soul.

You know, not everybody who goes to church does so because they're driven there in emotional agony! Millions of people go because they were raised in the faith.

Maybe Christian women aren't better equipped emotinally to be loving spouses. But in their marriages they have an Resource that the unchurched woman don't have. Would you really rather marry a woman who doesn't believe in anything bigger than her own ambitions, desires, self? Do you really want someone who thinks that, since there is no God, anything is okay?
