How is the Eastern Orthodox Church different from the Catholic Church?

Orthodox priests can be married before they are ordained whereas Catholic priests cannot ever be married (except when a priest/minister of another denomination converts and wishes to be in the Catholic clergy).


Could catholic priest or the pope ever get married?

A man cannot get married after he has received the sacrament of holy orders. However, it is possible for a man who is already married to be ordained. This is practiced in the Eastern Catholic Churches, but not in the Roman Catholic Church.


What king replaced the pope as head of the Catholic Church?

No king has ever replaced a pope as head of the Catholic Church. Henry VIII did break from the Catholic Church and formed what is the Church of England but which is not a Catholic Church as it is not in union with Rome.


Can a man married and divorced by the state and divorced marry a Catholic woman?

You mean he got married and divorced by a minister who is not a priest or deacon, without the Catholic church's blessing? If this is what you are asking, the answer turns on: 1) Was the man Catholic? If he was, then the Church will not recognize his first marriage unless he got permission from his bishop to get married by the state. So, because he was never married, he won't have any difficulties marrying a Catholic woman who has never been married in the Catholic Church after receiving an annulment (a decree that no marriage ever existed). 2) If the man was not Catholic at the time of the first marriage, the church WILL recognize it. He will need to submit for an decree of nullity (an annulment) to see if the marriage was valid or not. If it was not valid he may marry after the decree is issued, otherwise, no.


Was there ever a pope that was married?

St. Peter, the first Pope, brought Christ to see his in-laws, so one can infer that the first Pope was married. Priestly celibacy was never mandatory until much much later, though always heartily encouraged.

Can a non-Catholic that was married and divorced twice get married to a Catholic girl in a Catholic Church without an annulment?

You would have to discuss your individual situation with a Catholic priest. If your marriages were considered valid, then you would still be considered married, and you could only marry again if you proved that both marriages were invalid, which is what an annulment is, a degree that no valid marriage ever happened. You need to make an appointment with your local priest.


Why do priests tell you that your baby is a Bastard if you weren't married in a Catholic church?

While the church does not recognize a marriage of Catholics outside of the church to be a valid sacramental marriage, it does recognize civil marriages outside of the church to be valid. No priest should ever tell you that your baby is illegitimate.

When did the Catholic Church stop fines for non attendance?

There is no answer to the question as asked, as the Catholic Church has never, to the best of my knowledge, in two thousand years, ever, fined anybody for non-attendance. I think you have the Catholic Church confused with the Puritans!


No true catholic can ever get salvation if he never comes away from this false church?
