Cath Caucus: Cardinal Müller, Private Judgment Decides Whether Marriage Is Valid Or Not

According to Cardinal Gerhard Müller a Catholic may conclude that the marriage he contracted in front of the Church was invalid although he has no canonical proof for this.

Talking to the ultraliberal Vatican Insider (December 31) Müller claimed that if such a person enters another liaison, the second liaison would be the one valid before God.

The claim that anybody but an ecclesiastical judge may decide about the validity of a marriage was explicitly condemned by the Council of Trent (1545-1562). Without annulment every second liaison is a mortal sin. Müller therefore presupposes that the annulation process or the canonical form of the Catholic marriage are irrelevant.

I'm so very, very tired of this kind of Barbra Streisand from Cardinal Müller.

Pope Benedict Praises Cardinal Muller for Defending the Faith.

The wheels have completely come off, at this stage.

Shameful. Sounds like Benedict has succumbed to wolves that he had once feared.

Cardinal Muller needs to take about a month and hang out with Bishop Athanasius Schneider.

The climate in Kazakhstan would do him good.
