I still find it hard to believe that the Catholic church truly doesn’t believe in miracles any more. How could they possibly know that the man might not recover from his spinal cord injury or any couple couldn’t overcome their infertility for that matter and couples are often blessed with children against medical odds. New medicines and treatments for things are being developed all the time. The entire idea of them denying a marriage on those grounds really upsets me. It sounds like something Muslims would come up with, not otherwise civilized people like Catholics.

Good points, all. If true, it seems almost diabolical.

Exactly! Did not Abram marry a "barren" wife? They had that miracle happen!
