18. My best friends
are a married couple. After several miscarriages, her doctors reached the conclusion that would probably never be able to have children. That conclusion turned out to be right.

Her husband, a rabbi, was told by another (more orthodox) rabbi that he had to divorce his wife immediately because since she could never give him children, it was not a true marriage. My friend gave the rabbi until the count of three to leave the room. If he was still there after that, he was going to be punched back to whatever hole he crawled out of. The orthodox beat a hasty retreat.

Maybe by buddy should rent himself out to fight the good fight on behalf of childless marriage...
