There are two times we are in Ordinary Time. There are 28 weeks of Ordinary Time after Easter and 5 weeks of Ordinary Time after Christmas. However, this varies depending upon when Easter falls in a particular year. The actual number of weeks of Ordinary Time in any given year can total 33 or 34.

There is only one Ordinary Time, it runs from the end of the Christmas Season to the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday, when Lent starts. Then it starts again on the Monady following Pentecost Sunday and runs to the Saturday before the First Sunday of Advent. There are 33 or 34 weeks of Ordinary Time. The first part - from the end of Christmas to the beginning of Lent varies a lot depending on when Christmas ends and when Lent begins, both of which are variable. In 2013 Christmas season ends with The Baptism of the Lord on 13 January, so Ordinary Time begins on Monday, 14 January and runs until Tuesday 12 February which means we have four Sundays of Ordinary Time (actually the Baptism of the Lord is the First Sunday of Ordinary Time, the end of Christmas, so there will be five Sundays of Ordinary Time) before Lent, with all the remaining Sundays of Ordinary Time falling between Pentecost in May and Advent on the first of December.

What if married outside the church and can't have a catholic priest at the ceremony How do you get the church to recognize your marriage?

The question needs to be expanded as there are many things to consider. A Catholic can marry outside the church as long as it is in another Christian church and recognized by the Catholic church if the non catholic party agrees to your oath to raise the children as Catholic. The priest does not have to be present. The marriage must be in church, it cannot be outside the church in a garden or country club, unless the non-catholic party is Jewish or Muslim (out of respect) and again agrees to the children being brought up as Catholic If two catholics are married by a Justice of the Peace outside of church they can have their marriage recognized by the Catholic Church,as long as this was first marriage for both.

Why did the split in the Roman Catholic Church become permanent?

I think perhaps you are asking about the Eastern Schism when most of the Eastern Rites split into two, half remaining Catholic, and half forming what is known as the Orthodox Church. . Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is rarely used by the Catholic Church. The split is a long time running, but it cannot remain permanent, as Christ prophesized that all would come into the Catholic Church before the end of the world.
