Can a Catholic not married in the Catholic church but divorced with a child from the marriage marry a Catholic in the church?
You should be ok. Many of them welcome all and don't bar anyone in particular from marrying in the Church provided you can afford the service. If you were baptized Catholic and married in a civil ceremony with no church approval at that time, and divorced, you can marry in the Catholic Church. Your new spouse has to meet guidelines, however; for example if he/she was married in the churchas Catholic and divorced he cannot marry you unless his first marriage was annulled.
Can you marry in a Catholic Church in Italy you are divorced but did not marry in a Catholic Church?
If you are divorced, you CANNOT marry in any Catholic church anywhere in the world. In the Catholic church's eye, you are still married once you are divorced. Therefore, you are committing adultery by remarrying.If you want to remarry, you should get an annulment. This completely erases the former marriage.If you are divorced, baptized Catholic, and were not married in a Catholic church or marriage not validated by a Catholic priest, but were married in a civil ceremony or a non Catholic Church, then you CAN be married in a Catholic Church, with proper dispensation. You shouild see a priest in this case; otherwise you need an annullment.Roman Catholic AnswerThe above answer is a little confused, if you have been married and are divorced, then you are still married in the eyes of the Church and can not get married again unless your first spouse dies. If there was some defect with the first marriage AND IT WAS NOT VALID IN THE FIRST PLACE, then you can get an annulment which is nothing more than the Church's declaration that the first attempted marriage never took place validly. The Church has no power to "completely erase" any valid marriage. If your marriage was valid, then you will be denied an annulment. In the last case mentioned above, you were a Catholic but did not marry in front of a priest, then you did not fulfuill the requirements for a valid marriage, and your attempted marriage could be annulled.
Can a Catholic man married by the Justice of the Peace to a non-Catholic get married to a Catholic?
Probably. If the Catholic man did not gain permission from his bishop to be married by a minister who is not a Catholic priest or deacon, the Church will not recognize that prior marriage as being valid. Thus, in the eyes of the church he was never married to begin with. If he got a civil divorce from his first "wife" then he would be free under secular law to remarry. Since he was never married before in the eyes of the Church, it is likely that he can marry a Catholic woman (assuming she was never married) in the Catholic church. He should consult with his pastor for a review by a canon lawyer.
Was there a period in history when Roman Catholic priests were allowed to marry?
YES, TWO ANSWERS! First, (for people who believe the Catholic tradition) The Catholic church dates itself back to Peter as their first pope, who was married. The elephant in the Catholic's room that they do not wish to discuss is how they do not allow popes (or priest) to marry, YET, their first pope was married. Second, (for those who do not believe the Catholic tradition) The Catholic church morphed out of the original church that was established and written about in the Bible. That original church had no problems with ministers or preachers being married. (the term priest\clergy had not been invented). So before the Catholic church got up and running and organized as we know it today, the preachers teaching their doctrine were able to be married.
Your bf is protestant and you are Catholic you have been married before If you want to marry each other who would marry us?
If you wish to be married in the Catholic Church and your first marriage was in the church, you will need to apply for an annulment (Catholic divorce) before you can remarry in the church. If you wish to marry in the protestant church, they do not have any laws that I know of that would prevent you from marrying in their church. If you have a civil marriage and no church marriage, then you can get married in the Catholic Church since civil marriages are not recognized as a holy sacrament and the covenant with God did not take place.

I am a divorced Man and I am a practicing Catholic and was never married in the Catholic Church. Can I marry a practicing Catholic Woman who is a widow in the Catholic Church.?
Answer: The Catholic widow is free to marry. You are also free to marry in the Catholic Church. This is because your first marriage was not a Catholic one and, according to Church law, it should have been. It will be simple matter of speaking to your local pastor and filling out a form to be sent to the diocese.
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.
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.
