Love and Corinthians 13

Well, I finally found a priest who had the courage to come out and say it.  This Sunday's second reading, from Paul's first letter to the Corinthians, the famous chapter 13, is the worst reading that can be done at weddings!  Yet, it is the most popular.
I will go one step farther and say that this reading and its overuse may be one of the reasons why the sanctity of marriage is going down the tubes in our world today.

Love is patient, love is kind.
It is not jealous, it is not pompous,
It is not inflated, it is not rude,
it does not seek its own interests,
it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury,
it does not rejoice over wrongdoing
but rejoices with the truth.
It bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails.

Paul isn't just talking about love between man and woman.  He isn't just saying how wonderfully self denying love is only between married people.  This is love in general.  This is the love that should be exuded by all people that call themselves a follower of Jesus Christ toward every other person on this earth.
I think it would be interesting to take poll on how many divorced couples used this reading at their wedding.  What is it nowadays... something like 50% of all marriages end in divorce.  If love never fails, how come in this country it does half of the time?
Diocese, especially in this country, need to make sure that marriage preparation is what it should be, and I say priests should refuse to marry a couple if they want to have this reading read at their wedding.  Lets make love something more then just something shown between two people... love is for all because Christ died for all.

Peace all
