Dr Edward Peters: A Problematic Proposal

As I read it, Prof. David Carlin wants Catholic priests in America to stop officiating at weddings recognized under civil law since, in his opinion, accepting state recognition of Catholic weddings implies the Church’s concession of the legitimacy of state-legislated divorce.

For Dr Peters' response to this proposal, see his latest Canon Law Blog post:
