geoff, i agree with you some what.. she was chattel, at a time when the law does not recognize it. So, she obeyed her husband dictates, because that is what a wife is supposed to do, and when things weren't right, she appealed to him for help, only to be told she she needed to pray, and accept god's will.. but when she acted.. suddenly, she is now back to 21C reality. (and twat is a pretty mild CK. )about the only good thing i can see about the man, is he hasn't abandon her (yet) he still sees her as his wife, and feels honor bound to her.

i suspect he doesn't have that much education either, and he didn't know how to recognize and evaluate how serious her conditions was. i don't think if he had realize how sick she was, and how distorted her thinking was, he would have done nothing. he seems genuine bewildered.. he had no idea she was a disturbed as she was.
