Okay, so this video is going around of an ordination Mass in an African church. A bunch of young men were about to be ordained priests, and the bishop stopped the whole thing to ask a question.
"If you are the girlfriend of anyone here, and you don't want him to go through with the priesthood, please step forward."
Nobody did. The men just stood there in their white robes while the bishop waited, looking around the church. After a few seconds he carried on with the ceremony and everyone clapped.
People online can't get over it. Some think it was a smart move, others think it was a bit much, but I think it was a fair question to ask once, out loud, before these men made a promise for life. And for the record, no one objected, so they all became priests.
