“You man the same Callista that he was having an affair with while still married to his second wife?”

I think you meant to say “ You MEAN the same Callista that he was having an affair with while still married to his second wife?”

and yes, the same one...St. Mary Magdalen might say “gotta a problem with that?”

” 3 The scribes and Pharisees brought a woman along who had been caught committing adultery; and making her stand there in the middle
4 they said to Jesus, ‘Master, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery,
5 and in the Law Moses has ordered us to stone women of this kind. What have you got to say?’
6 They asked him this as a test, looking for an accusation to use against him. But Jesus bent down and started writing on the ground with his finger.
7 As they persisted with their question, he straightened up and said, ‘Let the one among you who is guiltless be the first to throw a stone at her.”

John Chapter 8:3-7

It never says that St. Mary of Magdala was the woman caught in adultery.

First of all, it’s not clear that Mary Magdalene is the subject of John 8. That’s merely tradition.

Second, there is nothing in the context of John 8 that suggests it’s OK to continue on the with the adulterous affair, going so far as to divorce your spouse to marry the one you have been fornicating with. I wonder if adulterer and adulteress were attending Mass together.

I trust that Newt and his third bride have found true repentance and conversion to faith in Jesus Christ.
