“... in July 2007, Cardinal John Onaiyekan of Abuja, Nigeria, said that on polygamy, “the Catholic Church is particularly firm and consistent, giving no room whatsoever for doubts and exceptions.”

Actually, Cardinal Onaiyekan, the Catholic Church made an exception in the 12th century but everyone has forgotten about that. I see nothing wrong with following that same practice today when necessary.

I’m curious. What was that 12th century exception?
