MARRIAGE WITHOUT "OBEY"
English Bishops Favor Omitting Word
From the Service

Present Form: wilt thou love
him. comfort him, and honor and
keep him?
In sickness and in health, to love,
cherish and obey.
Proposed Form: wilt thou obey
him. serve him, love. honor and keep
him,
In sickness and in health. to love
and to cherish.
The omission of the word "obev'
from the marriage service and to al
ter the wording as in these forms
was the subject for grave discus
sion among high officials OF the
Church of England ut the recent con-
vocation of Canterbury. So wide
spread has become the sentiment for
the recognition of real equality and
partnership between husband and wife
that the Bishop of Lincoln had an
nounCed that he would move such an
amendment.
Although the amendment was new
er introduced to be acted upon, It
served to stir up a discussion which
showed the difference of opinion as
expressed to be not so much on the
merits of the amendment as % rs

The whole expression Of opinion by
different bishops was that the ques-
ton must be settled, and those who
committed themselves favored a rec
ognition of equality. The Bishop of
Winchester said that it was with re-
greet that he saw the word "obey'' con-
tinue to stand in the form of the SER
vice. The Bishop of Hereford de-
clared that some change should be
made which would make the under
