Can I rejoin the catholic church if I was married by a Presbyterian minister?
Yes, you can. If you were baptized as CATHOLIC and married by a Presbyterian minister your marriage is invalid in the eyes of the church ( although your civil marriage is certainly valid). You can have your marriage validated by the Catholic church as long as this is your first and only marriage and your spouse's first and only marriage. Your spouse and you would need to agree to raise any children Catholic, make a permanent commitment for life, and do this freely. If this is not a first marriage, it is still possible, but a bit more complicated, so contact a parish priest or deacon.

What is your view on accepting same-sex marriage in the christian church?
It does not exist. The bible specifically defines marriage as being between a man and a woman. Anything other than this is not a marriage.AnswerWell, that's a question for each Christian sect to answer. If you are looking for a pro-same-sex marriage position, talk to a minister from the Church of Christ, Evangelical Lutheran Church, Episcopalian, or even Quaker denomination. For a position on why same-sex marriage should not be countenanced, talk to a Roman Catholic priest or a minister from either the Southern Baptist Church or a Missouri Synod Lutheran Church. I would suggest you talk to the two Lutheran denominations, since they share many other beliefs, but the contrast in view on homosexuality is instructive.
