Nevermind. I just did a little search on Google and here is what I found out:
“After a brief courtship, a short period of cohabitation, and the signing of a prenuptial agreement, the Kerrys were married in a civil ceremony on Nantucket in 1995.”
There is a world of meaning here for Catholics, and for anyone who takes Kerry’s professions of faith seriously. He and his wife, both baptized Catholics, are living together in defiance of Catholic teaching. In the eyes of the Church, their marriage is invalid: Catholics may not marry outside the Church. The issue of abortion aside, the Kerrys are both ineligible to receive Communion.
I'm not trying to create a fuss here. I just don't understand why they are calling themselves Catholics since they don't seem to consider the teachings of their church important and their taking of communion is apparently not permitted.
