So this is a sacrament that only a small group participate in, why is it called a sacrament if all RC don't participate in it?

How can marriage be a sacrament if not all Catholics participate in it?

I don't know, I'm not the Roman Catholic. A great deal of what you do doesn't make sense.

I can see an argument for marriage as all of your parishioners have the opportunity to participate. Your Holy Orders are restricted to only male parishioners.

The two sacraments taught in SCRIPTURE, baptism and communion, involve ALL of the FAITHFUL.
