A more important question than the use of personal pronouns in a liturgy: Why are Anglicans so enamored with divorce even though it is explicitly condemned by Jesus Christ?

"Enamored"? Please explain. I know none, even including liberal Episcopalians, who love divorce.

Insidious western individualism attacking the basic unit of civilization: insistence on "my rights" and "my needs". Ephesians 5 clearly puts each individual spouses "needs" subordinate to the other's, subortinate to the needs of the marriage as a greater entity, and above all subordinate to the Lordship of Christ.
