I guess your choosing to allow your own misconseptions about how the church itself interpets its own theological doctrine and or your own agenda of converting everyone to be atheist to rule your preceptions then Thorne.

Are you saying the church doesnt promote harmonious unions between husband and wife?

No ones making you join any religious organization or live by its rules are they?

The ultimate arbitrator on what any paticular theology is all about would be it's followers anyway. If they don't like those interpetations of their church leadership I am sure they will find a new religion to follow, or establish a new sect within thier current one.

On this paticular topic, that being a vicar promoting a piece of the church in question's doctrine for women to submit to their husbands; I fail to see what the big deal is.

(which as I have been tuaght to understand means mutual respect being established within a hierarchial framwork bewteen partners so that the two will be in harmony in the fashion that god intended them to be in)

Is that all that different from the position of evolutionary biologists?

Which as I understand the churches position is exactly what the church itself says it is when you ask them as well.

I have to wonder why you think its so horrible thing for a woman to submit to her husband.

I also have to wonder : Are you also saying that a slave or submissive then shouldnt submit in similar fashion to her master or dominnat ?
