Loophole

Today in Canon Law class I learned about this special opportunity for you ladies:

A woman may not contract a valid marriage with a man who has abducted her for this purpose, but there isn't any problem with matrimonial consent in the opposite case.

See for yourself. Canon 1089.

No comments:

Post a Comment

Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.

I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.

If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
