Catholic Exchange —
Authority: 644
Q: I thought once a man was ordained a priest, he is always a priest. So how is it that some priests get permission to leave the priesthood and get married? Sometimes you hear about somebody being a “former priest,” and I don’t see how that’s possible. – David A: This is certainly an excellent ...4 days ago -

Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam —
Authority: 440
Dr Peters writes:Id like to see us someday reach the point where arch/diocesan staffers learn to avoid speculating (at least in public) on canonical matters.

Confession by Appointment and Face-to-Face
Catholic Exchange —
Authority: 644
Q1: We just moved, and our new parish doesn’t have set confession times. The bulletin says “confessions by appointment.” My wife doesn’t think that’s a violation of our right to receive the sacrament, since the priest will hear our confessions if we ask him to. But it seems to me that it ought to be easier ...2 weeks ago -

Stumbled across these lectures (kind of boring if you start with the opening lecture, but it gets going) on the history of canon law. Having learned much from Harold J.

Southern Illinois Catholic —
Authority: 150
I was hunting around the diocesan web site to determine the number of parishes (to guestimate how long it might take the bishop to visit all if he visited 2 a month or so). I came across this page on the annulment procedures, a FAQ page. I thought it was very informative and fair. Some people get snarky about the ...4 weeks ago -

Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam —
Authority: 440
