There is nothing wrong with the way that Annulments are currently done in the Catholic Church by making the Annulment process simpler.

Albert Kopsho, you are trolling big time.

Everybody knows that annulments are the Catholic version of Divorce. It just makes people comfortable in their sins
and feel good feelings on their road to Hell.
I do not like the following blatant dishonestly from the so called modern church:

I am not trolling. The reason the annulment process was changed somewhat was to simplify the annulment process so that divorced Catholics could remarry in the Catholic Church.

Annulments are not the Catholic version of Divorce since an Annulment is totally different from a Divorce. And it is total misconception that a Catholic Annulment renders children illegitimate if the children's birth certificates state that they were born legitimate.

Divorce and being remarried is adultery.

Yes, and that is exactly the problem.
Streamlining paperwork is one thing, broadening the grounds for annulment to include and and all reasons is different. As far as I know "till death do us part" is still part of the vows, so what is so hard to understand about that?
Even people who get a divorce because of domestic violence or one partner is sent to jail for life, they are still married in the eyes of God and cannot remarry, even if they did need legal protection from that spouse. Their civil divorce does not change the fact that under the ultimate law, the law of God, they are still married.

Not even you yourself believe that.

I know a person who was married for 25 years and got an annulment. He was told by his pastor: "Oh, get the civil divorce first, then we'll start the annulment process..." ;) After all, it would look tacky if a person got an "annulment" and then could not get a civil divorce... ::)
Now, are you trying to tell me that his wife was completely ignorant of what Catholic marriage entailed (she was protestant) for those 25 years? :(
Or maybe she awoke every morning and recited "I will never have children from this union. I never intended to, and never will." 8)
After all, that is the logic the "tribunal" swallowed. :confused:
Can people really be that stupid?? :jester:
The mark of True Catholicism is commitment to matrimony. Part of that is accepting the consequences of acting with passion rather than reason. Immature brats seek the easy way out, and want authority to sanction their perversity. Mature men and women take up the cross of distaste for their spouse and carry on, working to nurture a relationship, even if the other party is obstinate and spiteful.
"Annulments" are for :baby:
