"I am not Catholic today because my grandparents were married outside of the church and their children weren't allowed to be part of the church because they were bastards."
Thankfully, things have changed since then. My husband's neice had a her out of wedlock children baptized as Catholics as a friend of my daughter did with her child. Schiavo is just a murderous s.o.b. He will get his.
I long for the days when bearing or siring an illegitimate child was a stigma.
