Yes, you read that right. After bringing about the death of his first wife, a Catholic church allowed Michael to attempt a second marriage within its sacred confines.

While I agree that this is ridiculous, how is it any different than having a marriage anulled? Are they not allowing those previously married to get married again?

Can anyone deny that Jody colluded, at least morally, in this action?

Make that more than morally colluded. She and her mother blocked Terri's family from entering her room and had the gall to sit death watch at her bedside. No, the happy couple will not part at death since they'll both be headed the same direction for eternity.

Interesting question the title raises.

Do Catholics profess that we are marred in the Kingdom?

It is most doubtful they had permission from the Holy See to marry and probably Rome was not aware of it. Hopefully, they are aware now and something must be done about it.

Just thought that you should have a ping to this thread, if you haven't gotten one already.

Will Michael Schiavo ever get enough of spitting in God's face?
