Buried in his humor is the real point.
If Americans can be divorced for "incompatibility of the temper," I cannot conceive why they are not all divorced. I have known many happy marriages, but never a compatible one. The whole aim of marriage is to fight through and survive the instant when incompatibility becomes unquestionable. For a man and a woman, as such, are incompatible.
Of course, GKC never imagined the possibility of 'marriage against nature' recently approved by Bryan Steil and others in our laughable circus called Congress, following in the footsteps of a Court which used to be laughable.
