Dear AppyPappy,
Obtaining a declaration for one's marriage in the Catholic Church does not make one's children from that marriage illegitimate.
A declaration of nullity merely states that the marriage, though possibly legal in the eyes of the state (and thus legitimating children that issued forth), is not of a sacramental quality. It does not sufficiently reflect the marriage of Christ and His Bride, the Church.

Obtaining a declaration = Obtaining a declaration of nullity
Sorry for the omission.

I don't want to hear the Catholics condemn divorce ever again.
