Want a Catholic Wedding?

Better buy some Viagra just in case:

An Italian bishop has refused to allow a church wedding for a paraplegic man who was rendered impotent by a crippling automobile accident.

A spokesman for Bishop Lorenzo Chiarinelli of Viterbo explained that although the bride was aware of her fiancé's condition, their union could not be celebrated as a Christian marriage because impotence is grounds for annulment.

If that's what he believes the bible says, he cannot possibly marry the couple. I think it takes a lot of guts to refuse marrying them.

I think that if you to marry within a cult (and that is what catholicism really is), you should not be surprised that some people interpret the foggy rules a bit different than you do.
