Roman Catholic AnswerIf you are a Catholic, you are not living with someone until after you have married them. If you are living with a "significant other" without the benefit of marriage, I would suggest that you start living as brother and sister immediately, and speak to a priest pronto!

Do priests have the right to marry?

A Catholic man chooses whether to marry and live as a husband and father of a family, or whether to enter the priesthood. If he chooses to enter the priesthood, he takes a vow of celibacy, that is to remain unmarried. If a Catholic priest and his bishop agree that entering the celibate priesthood was a mistake on his part, the priest may be laicized and released from his vows, that is, he is no longer a member of the Catholic hierarchy but a layman, and free to marry. A fair number of (former) priests did this during the 1960s and 1970s - left the priesthood and married.

How do you get permission from a bishop to marry a non-christian?

You start by calling the parish you live in and set up appointment with priest or deacon who will ask some questions and send proper papers to the bishop if you so intend the marriage to be a valid catholic marriage with the promise to raise children Catholic. This is provided there are no other impediments, such as a previous marriage or divorce, that might void this.

Does the Catholic Church recognize a marriage between divorced people one never married in a Catholic Church and one previously married in a Catholic church but not a Catholic?

No. The person who was previously married would need to try to receive a declaration of nullity from the Catholic Church. If the other person is Catholic and attempted to marry outside of the Church without dispensation then that marriage was in and of itself invalid due to lack of canonical form and does not need a declaration of nullity from a tribunal. So in a jist, as long as the divorced Catholic, who never received dispensation from canonical form (i.e. a Catholic priest or deacon receiving the consent who has jurisdiction or permission and two witnesses) was never married in the Catholic Church, then they were never validly married and is free to contract marriage. But this must be done in the Catholic Church unless they get dispensation from canonical form from the Local Ordinary. The non-Catholic is NOT free to marry due to the prior bond that is presumed valid. Their marriage must be investigated and declared null by the competent tribunal for that person to be able to marry. I would highly recommend contacting the chancery of the diocese that you live in to get this process started as this current marriage is invalid.


Your partner is still married can you have your child christened in church?

Most Catholic parishes ask that at least the custodial parent promises to live as a faithful Catholic and raise their child as a member of the Catholic community. You will need to discuss with your pastor how you and your child's other parent will live out your commitment to your child's future.
