There are female physicians, lady attorneys, and now, a woman of culture to minister at weddings. You and your guests will be blessed by her care and dynamic oratory style. Perhaps you even believe in the sanctity of marriage. The person performing your ceremony should meet definitive standards. For some, that realization could diminish the sacredness of that memory.
Today there are many Reverends offering to marry couples.
Some have been ordained on the Internet or by mail order through the Universal Life Church or some similar scheme. While many lawmakers realize this charade exists and is spreading our way, the Arizona Legislature has only begun to look into this moral dilemma. Mail order and internet-certificate agencies create cavalier ministers that do not want to comply with the heritage of a historical church or temple. This qualification could not earn the trust and respect of most right thinking people. In fact, it completely discredits the effort some men and women make to present themselves as duly ordained.
