I spoke with an interesting person this day. There is on board a Catholic priest with a British accent who is based in Texas. This seemed incongruous so I was bold (or perhaps rude) enough to ask how this combination transpired. It turned out that a number of the more conservative Anglican priests had become Catholic priests recently due to the sex questions in the Anglican church. Those Anglican priests who were married were given celebicy waivers by the pope. This priest and his twin brother, also a priest, worked in the area of marriage encounters, weekends spent helping couples strengthen their marriages through counseling on communication and related techniques.
