You wrote The Church is wise enough to know that granting an annulment prior to a civil divorce could make the Church a party to a subsequent civil divorce, and subject to alienation of affection lawsuits.

Can anyone find any state which still has laws like this? Civil attorneys in Ohio advised me these laws are gone. My understanding was that with the sexual revolution, these laws were wiped off the books. After all, having an affair isn't against the law anymore.

Texas has them.

I don't understand your objection to a Catholic marriage ceremony also being recognized by the state.
