Excuse me ... but I had a question that I thought a Catholic could answer, based on an experience of a member of my own family. I don’t understand the rules.
AND it IS my business if Gingrich is now a Catholic to know if he was married in the Catholic church and how he managed that if, like my brother in law, he was married/divorced, and was able to convert and marry ‘in the eyes of the church’ without an annulment.
Who are you, the Church Lady?
I re-read your question, and here it is:
As fate would have it, that was my last conversation with my sister, who had the good grace to drop dead a few weeks later, relieving my brother in law of his living in sin, and he went forward with the conversion. He subsequently married another woman with whom he is presumably living in sin.
So, my question is: did Newt and Callista Gingrich get married by a priest in the Catholic Church? If so, how?
If you sincerely want to know, ask your brother in law if he is living in sin. I’m betting you won’t. How does your brother in law have anything to do with Newt and Calista Gingrich’s marriage, anyway?
