This issue is equivalent of someone not wanting to marry another
person because s/he was previously married.
Yes, and it also illustrates why many people with conservative views
see the legitimization of divorce as having the effect of weakening
the institution of marriage.
I agree with your basic point (there needs to be some sort of "escape
clause" for really bad situations). But I think it's wrong to lay all
the blame on Nationals having rules for "some dumb reason".
Nationals exist to uphold the dignity of the rituals that were created
by the organization's founders. If you reduce everything to "It was
just an oath, it doesn't really mean anything" where does that leave
you?
