Some people seek out their priest for advice on marital woes -- I get that. (I will include living together, non-married people in this group), etc. while some people will seek out their hairdresser, bartender, manicurist, shrink or therapist.
How can someone (i.e. a priest) give an insightful advice on inter-personal, marriage'y-type relationships when they are not in one themselves and NEVER WILL BE? (unless they pull a Father Ralph de Bricassart , a la "The Thorn Birds").
Isn't that like going to a car mechanic who has never driven a car?

I was watching FOX News (no, hell did not freeze over), and they were talking about this show, and they brought up this very question. A current priest, one of the guys on the show, an evangelical pastor, and a priest who quit in order to get married all had interesting to say about it.
