That is PRECISELY what it means! Remember, they say cleanliness is only NEXT to Godliness -- meaning, it's an afterthought, not as important as godly activities like loving your children and your fellow human beings. After that, if you want to, it's okay to vaccuum. That's my reading, at least.

As I said on AIM, "Mary vs. Martha!"

And, as you, smartypants that you are, replied, "Luke 10:38-42."

Of course, most priests I know continue to assert that Martha was doing the right thing, in spite of Jesus' assurance that Mary had chosen the better part. It never ceases to amaze me how some people who profess Christianity will contradict Christ if what he says gets in the way of their philosophy and/or convenience.
