I will pray ALWAYS - i offer a hail mary at every mass and everyday for Fr. Chris Alar, Fr. Donald Calloway, All Marian Priests, ALL PRIESTS, the cardinals, bishops, pope. We would not have Jesus in the Eucharist, we would not have the sacraments, sacramentals if it wasnt for our dear priests who have offered their lives up for us in representation of Our Lord Jesus. Nothing more important on this earth than to have our souls in the state of grace because of our beloved priests. Thank you and God Bless you all.
AMEN 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏
Thank you both. Great conversation! God bless!
Yes, no sugar coating!💝
I will pray for Fr. Chris, all priests, bishops, cardinals and the Pope!🙏

I will pray for all priests. Fr. Alar, God Bless you.
We want the Truth Father Chris.
Praying for you Father Chris and all priests!!! AMEN 🙏🏻
When I went through marriage prep, the man I was marrying was a widower, very wealthy, and best friend with the priest. I got the bare minimum in information because my fiancé didn’t feel we needed it and the priest did what he said. We ended up divorced with an annulment soon after marriage. I knew nothing about marriage and the man misunderstood marriage. All priests should be required to educate as thoroughly as this video did in marriage prep, otherwise they are only failing the couple and possibly directing them to hell instead of heaven due to a lack of knowledge in truth. Thanks for the great information!
Wow, beautiful, thanks Christine for making Fr. Chris your guest. Very true Father Chris, there should not be sugar coating with regards to the true Teachings of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.Father you are always in my daily prayers.🙏🙏🙏

This was a fantastic talk Dr. Christine Bacon and Father Chris Alar this really clears up a lot of unanswered questions about what is acceptable in the Sacrament of marriage, Father Chris you explain marriage so clearly and easy to understand how God truly design marriage to be and how marriage mirrors the trinity. God Bless you both
Great discussion. Thanks, Christine. Fr. Alar, thank you for educating us on Catholic sacraments, and for being an exemplary model of how to follow Christ. God bless you both.

Thank you,Doc Christine for having Fr. Chris.
May we have more Marian priests 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you Father Chris and Christine. Thank you Father for explaining annulment so we all were able to hear, simply and to the point. My marriage ended 20 years ago, I am officially divorced however never pursued annulment. The marriage VOW is so powerful. I did not understand, at the time of my marriage, that the VOW is not only between you and your husband, it is also between you and God. God will show us what to do if the right Catholic gentleman comes forward to marry me!🌹🌹Thanks be to God, God bless and you are in my prayers!
Thank you, Fr. Alar and Christine! I listened to this with my 17 and 20 year old sons today. It opened the door for great discussions. Please pray for us! We are praying for you. 🙏🕊️
I am so blessed to hear your wisdom and love for God, and the church, I will be praying for you Father, the Marians and all the priesthood, God continue to bless and keep you strong
I will pray for Father Chris and all the Marians Fathers & Brothers.
For Vocations of Priests and Religious.
🙏🙏🧎♀️📖🧎♀️🙏🙏
👑Viva Christo Rey👑
Thank God, that Father Chris Alar was called to the priesthood to defined so many things in the Catholic Church that have not been spoken about or have been missed construed
Thank you Father Chris for this talk and for everything you do. Thank you Christine for having Father Chris Alar on your show.
So if there were 350 annulments in 1969. And 70000 in 1989.
WHAT CHANGED??????
Poor formation is a huge problem for Gen X, Y, and Z.
Essential "unity" is what changed with the spirit of Vatican II. When Love becomes nature, marriage is whatever you want it to be. This is why NFP / TOB continue to hold marriage hostage and the statistics are going down the drain.
@@michelechandler9630gen x, y, and z all know that marriage is permanent and exclusive. They also know where babies come from. The effective change in law making love essential makes marriage lawless and annulment on demand.
@@michelechandler9630 - But not Baby Boomers? They certainly started the divorce revolution in the US.
Great discussion on a topic that I am passionate about, having had a profound conversion where God intervened through our Blessed Mother to save my marriage during a pilgrimage almost 17 years ago, having led a life of promiscuity. I had an illumination of conscience seeing Jesus on the Cross emitting rays of pure white and red lights every few seconds while my son and I were praying the Divine Mercy on my way back from Medjugorje. In this time of moral confusion where sins of the flesh are normalized, I believe divine intervention is necessary to correct our conscience. When God grants this illumination of conscience to the world as a final act of His infinite love and mercy, it will be joyful for those close to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, transforming those who are lukewarm but a shock and awe for those far away from God, living in mortal sins. Pray for the conversion of hearts.
Great to hear you father met you twice in Dublin last year God bless noel
Thank you. Lots of questions answered. Excellent podcast.
Fr thank you for saying what must be said regarding sexual relations. If only we were taught this before marriage there would be so much less heartbreak/ache and divorce.
Always praying for our priests ❤
It’s reassuring to hear that my marriage is now sacramental as my husband was baptised 4 years after our marriage in the Catholic church 🙏🏻
My Prayer for Fr. Chris and all the Priests Amen. 🙏
We love him🙏🙌
keeping fr. chris and the marians in my prayers. thank you, fr. chris for explaining the sacrament of matrimony more simply and clearly. giving us a deeper understanding of our roles as husband and wife. as always, you are God's gift to us.
Thanks Christine, will pray fir you Father Chris & all Priests.
God bless F. Alar and Christine, I was married for 15 years, we both were 30 years old at the time of the marriage , we have two children And we got divorce, now we both got the annulment from the Church but at the beginning I didn’t want the annulment because in my Mind is like cheating God.
I don't remember learning these in pre cana class..This is most important to knowing going into Marriage
@@divinemercy7036 right?! Everyone should be taught this!!!
Thank you for having Fr Chris on. I watch him on TH-cam. I remember you as I was previously a parishioner of St Stephen Martyr in Chesapeake. Pray that Fr Rafferty is doing well in his retirement 🙏🙏🙏
We offer our Prayers for Fr Chris Alar, for all the Marian Fathers, for all Priests and Religious. Blessed Virgin Mary our Mother intercede for us. Amen!
Being single is not a vocation. One chooses their vocation. Many wanted to marry but it never happened for them. Most people don’t choose to be single.
@dianawilde417 you're wrong according to the Church. You can use the same argument for marriage. Many want out and are in pain and don't choose that. Many are married, and their spouses leave, and they have to live as if their prodigal spouse is a POW for the rest of their lives. No sex. No dating. No one to shared his and pains with.
The existence of joy or pain doesn't define whether or not one is in a vocation. All vocations have joys and sorrows. Many single people could "choose" to marry but are too picky or choosy or any other reason. Most COULD marry and have broken off engagements. That, is still a CHOICE to be single in a sense. We have got to follow the Church and not make up our own laws.
@@DrChristineBaconIf you mean being a consecrated celibate, the forerunner to monasticism, that’s one thing. Historically, no Catholic chose to be a single layman. It was either Matrimony, the Priesthood, or Religious life in an order. (I’m almost completing my age of Christ Crucified still waiting for my 👰♀️. I have no vocation to the priesthood as I can’t drink alcohol.)
@@CatholicTraditional that is correct. thank you for clarifying 🙏
That was a very good talk!
I will be there and I look forward to Meeting both you and Father Chris Alar. Also Doctor Christine I’m seating at your table. Very excited about meeting everyone and joining in your wonderful Seminar.
@ThomasPagano-vk6uc thank you! It's always an honor to meet viewers. I'm excited to hear Fr. Chris, too!
After every Thursday mass a small group gets together and our mandate is to pray for the world but especially for the clergy the Pope the bishops and priests. God bless you and thank you for your work. Amen
Thank you so much for this podcast! 🥰👏Father as always, Thank you for everything you share with us. I will continue praying for all our priest. God bless this channel.
Praying for Fr Chris and the Marians every day. This was great just subscribed to this channel. Thank you for speaking the truth.
Thank you so much for clairifying. God bless you both.
Please pray for my marriage of 26 years. Please pray for my husband's conversion. Please he's a cradle Catholic and I am the convert. Please intercede and pray for my husband and our children.
You said thinking vocation, there are three. Priesthood, marriage and singlelife...what about the nunhood? Those women that have left their families and worldly life to serve the Lord
Wow!!! I so needed to hear this!!! God bless you father and Christine!!! You have clarified so much for me!!! Deo Gratias!!!JMJ+
Ave Maria! Fr. Chris listing to you Fr. Chris Bravo Fr. You made so much sense thank you very much For Becoming a Priest. Fr. You made so many things clear about the Sacrament of Matrimony totally incredible. Especially When it came to how a man and a woman should be submissive to her husband you made it so clear to me as well as the woman's role in the Marriage. I've never heard this explanation as clear as you have put it. Thanks 👌 God Bless you Thanks Christine for having Fr. Chris on your show.
Thank you Fr Chris. GBU. Amen
I wish you a good health always because I learn a whole lot more than the years I spend in catholic schools ive attended to I love marriage despite of the fact that I have a complicated one were still together after all these years im married to a Belgian thanks a lot father chris ❤❤❤❤
Ah!! I love Fr Chris!! He brought me back to the church!! I watch all his back to seminary and I’m a Marian helper!!! And my husband is starting RCIA in September and I give Fr Chris credit for that!!! Oh and we divorced but we got remarried!! Boy Christine we sure could have used you!! ❤❤🙏🏻🙏🏻
@user-og3ez5uh2g God bless you for that reconciliation! You truly did the work of seeking God's will regardless of the costs, and it paid off!
@@DrChristineBacon thank you!! But if we had known about you I doubt it would have taken us so long to realize! We divorced but we raised our son catholic we did everything as a family we even celebrated holidays together. Then one day my husband shyly asked me about getting married..again! And k said ok! And our son was the happiest of all and that’s the truth
@@user-og3ez5uh2g- A happy ending. Praise God!
I thought happy endings were only make believe. Thank you for sharing your story.
@@petramiranda5095 look up back to seminary living divine mercy and keeping it Marian.. trust me! ❤❤🙏🏻🙏🏻
Oh and pray your rosary every day even if you don’t want to and don’t feel it
Great talk with Fr Chris. A preparation for me in marriage tk my girlfriend. I am praying for her to be a Catholic as well. Please pray for us.
"And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:
11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife." This goes immediately out the window if the exception clause is for invalidity.
From what you say then, Why did my marriage get annulled, when all the criteria was met sacrementally. I sometimes think that the money paid to get an annulment is where the focus lies. The man who cheats can say that he was not ready to committ even though he stood strong before and knew what was expected for a sacremental marriage and was adamant that he knew what a sacremental marriage was in the Catholic Church.
Thank you for the TRUTH given straight up.
@Chiclette-ld1xx because the Church has been infiltrated by Satan to fulfill the dream Pope Leo XIII had. Many tribunals are not being guided by the Holy Spirit. Spouses lie when they fill out these papers. Hold fast, my sister. God sees how you've been wronged. He will rectify it in His own time and way.
Amen🙏😢🕊
@@DrChristineBacon Thank you for your response. A couple of priests first would not believe me as he was Eucharistic minister , music ministry, prayer group, & adoration leader. How can they believe that he didn't know he was getting into a sacremental marriage when he was younger and active in the church when I met him. Then went on to serve in all those capacities while brought up the children with the same values. He has left the children floundering in their faith and have left the Church. We used to pray together every night and say the rosary as a family till they became young teens. I tried, he tried but our Church clergy failed us! We needed counseling and conversation but got nothing. For that I was very angry and almost left the Church myself. If it wasn't for a major God intervention, I would have left.
This talk has come at a time when am standing at crossroads in my marriage, lately I've strongly felt that I should leave my husband....am struggling to forgive..... Thank you Fr Chris & Dr Christine.
@brendaxolisilemagubbwi1011 but forgive nonetheless. Your reward in heaven will be greater because of it.
I know what the church says is true. The biggest hurdle I have is my feelings about it. Too much of the world talking has gotten to me. I have to say that I really despise these hurdles
Father Chris, you've been a source of courage and strength as I am going through Spiritual Battle. I have been in a very sinful marriage,my husband being an occult member under FM. I live in a community run by them. I have a bro-in-law who's also a priest, but seems like under them also. He once told me he thinks that premarital sex that is automatically forgiven when married,no need to confess - May God forgive him and may they find strength courage to renounce. My husband wouldn't go to confession. I just told him to stop receiving Holy Communion. I am from the Philippines. FM is too much here.🙏
Let's pray for their destruction 🙏
And for all the Catholic priests' guidance 🙏😭
It's a blessing from God a marriage
Thank you Christine You Are So Right.And A Lot Of my Freinds Will Say Devorse him.iCant
ImAll About My Faith Jesus Says keep praying.God Bless you
All of this annulment talk makes me very uncomfortable. I do believe there's been abuse with the annulment process in recent decades. I also believe there's still been legit annulments. We are doing an injustice to many through all these easy annulments. How God will judge all of that is not something we can say for sure. We do not know of the complete picture of these peoples lives. We don't know the repentance, contrition, and or conversions they've gone through. God is the only one that knows and completely knows the heart and soul of each of us. That's all I want to share.
Amen.
To Jesus, through Mary.
🙏🏼📿✝️
Thank you Fr Chris for teaching the truth.
. There are so many Catholic teachings we are clueless of.
I've always said, unless we hear these things from the pulpit at Mass on Sunday, most Catholics wont hear them. Obviously these topics would be tough at Sunday Mass, but most Catholics dont do extra curricular Catholics things. Sure if a mission comes to the parish, many will attend, but most Catholics are good (at least in their minds) with going to Sunday Mass and they're goid to go!
That said, that reveals a greater problem. How can we say that we love God with our whole heart, soul, mind, and strength, (which is a command, not an option) if our God time only consists of going to Mass on Sunday?
Loving God is the First and greatest COMMAND! NOT OPTION.
Try coming home to your wife or husband one day a week and see if your spouse thinks you love them.
Try just talking to your spouse one day a week and see how that works out for you.
Thank you Fr Chris for talking about these truths of our faith. We cant fix what we don't know is broken. Thanks for making us aware.
The marital act is not to share love primarily, and Saint Thomas Aquinas says it is evil unless justified by procreation primary.
Answer the question father 46:38 46:39
It’s not that cut and dry. Being single in the secular world can be incredibly lonely🇦🇺🐨🦘
@anne-mariebiorci5453 oh FOR SURE it must be! It's a vocation, but that doesn't mean it doesn't come with its crosses. May God bless you in your vocation.
I'm heartened by what Fr. Mike Schmidt has to say about singleness and loneliness: "No one escapes the Cross." Married people don't, parents dont, priests and religious don't. Another Fr. Mike statement I love: "We must each learn how to be lonely well."
Dr. Bacon - You've just described my situation exactly (at 50 minutes in), though I have 8 children. I think the real question we have right now is... Is there a systemic problem in the US? Beginning with the priest that supports divnullment... and then a tribunal that grants an unjust annulment? It happens in so many different cities that I am leaning heavily towards yes. You see, the same philosophy that supports a greater % of annulments due to socio-cultural influences also applies to tribunals... and to Joe Parish Priest who supports divnullment.
Yes - systemic problem. Your tribunal defines marriage subjectively..
It's been awhile that this video was shown but I just saw it and wow I was not aware of lot of what was talked about.pls. bering him back I would love to learn more.
Pope Paul VI said that marriage "exists independent of love."
I had a conversion to Catholicism 4yrs ago. I was married to a my husband before my conversion and we been together since we were young teens we have three children my husband is not in the faith and i found out from his mum jas not been baptised. What can i do to have our marriage sanctified in Gods eyes? I know my husband won't want to convert or be baptised.
Casti Connubii 74 "false teachers" say "the rights of the husband and wife are equal."
Fr. Chris and Dr. Christine thanks so very much for this talk. I've got this concern .. if the husband is not leading as in performing his duties and caring for the children,... What should a wife do?.. as you say a wife should be submission and follow the husband
A natural marriage and a sacramental marriage are identical in essence.
Marriage is indisoluble, baptized or not.
And Heaven "you don't need the sexual act because you have perfect union with Christ." He just admitted that the primary purpose of the reproductive organs is union with Christ.
"unitive purpose" has no legal definition and it's not essential to marriage.
When a catholic gets married with a non catholic on legal civil way and then years later the non catholic gets baptised at the catholic church, what is the status of their marriage? Does it become sacramental or do they require a sacramental marriage in tje catholic church ? God bless..
Marriage is not a "complete giving." Marriage is a "right over the body for acts suitable for the generation of children."
I'm a born Catholic I would like to get married in Catholic Church but my husband willing to get married in the Catholic Church.... I catechist my husband little by little and I explained to him a marriage is a covenant a man and woman to God that will Love till the end of time till death do us a part.
@@estervandall7174 keep praying for God to soften his heart
So should i get an annulment after 25 years?
@dellchica2373 do you believe you were validly married or not? My opinion? No. Don't file for annulment. Do as Jesus says, "Deny yourself, pick up your cross and follow HIM."
If you were married in the church and you had kids, you had capacity / discretion.
@@DrChristineBaconmy ex husband left me with a 3 y.o i diapers 20 years ago for another woman, ( infidelity) married her and now 10 years later, 2nd divorce, because, . Yep, infidelity with ( a married woman) ..a nun had told me he was not a suitable candidate for marriage ( we were married 2 yrs at the time and already having lots of issues..)...now i see that she was correct, cause look how it has all turned out😢😢 i have remained single and unmarried since...taking up my cross and my babies and following Him...
@@AnnulmentProofyes i was but he was and still is an unsuitable candidate...see above👆
@dellchica2373 That's a heavy cross, but I'm glad you carry it nonetheless. Your reward will be great in heaven
Teach on IVF please
I want to say thank you Father, Chris and Christine. What a wonderful TH-cam podcast. I am going through an annulment process right now from what I understand if my annulment process goes through and I’m granted the annulment . Will I be able to remarry again In the Catholic Church? . Or am I doomed for the rest of my life? After my divorce, I became a devoted Catholic And if I am allowed to get married again after my annulment, will I be immortal sine by re-getting married again ?
@@vincenzolabarbera8964 an annulment means you've never been married. So yes, you are free to enter into your first marriage at that point.
@@DrChristineBacon thank you very much Dr. Christine for your reply,
Christine, just to be clear, if somebody gets a church annulment then they are free to get a State divorce and are therefore free to marry again in the Catholic Church? Would that be correct? Thanks 🙏🏼
being trans with many crosses but still thankful God did not give up on me. 🙂
He never has, and He never will! Neither will I! I love you and am here for you if you ever want to talk.
What is the husband doesn't lead and the wife does?
What Greek word for love is used in that passage from Corinthians? I'm curious how St. Jerome would have translated it. I imagine it's not Eros, as I don't think it's used in the New Testament. It is my firm belief that most wives are leaving their husbands for a lack of Eros, not Agape. They don't "feel" like they are loved, but they don't see their husband's sacrifice. And then they chase Eros with another fella. I know that some husbands do this as well, but 70% of divorces are initiated by women, so I'm just going by the numbers, because 95% of the time divorces happen, it's simply adultery.
Sadly, Fr. Alar is no friend to Standers.
If marriage is "unity," there is no such thing as a marriage stander.
What does that mean, standers?
@@kathywiens9852 "stander" is the spouse who keeps wearing their ring when the other spouse abandons, etc. if marriage is the intimate partnership of total gift of self blah blah blah, their is no such thing as a stander, bc when things hit the rocks, there is no manifest marriage, so there is nothing to stand on.
Christine, please forgive me. I think the comment you mentioned was from me on the video about the married priest. I re-read it and realized why it sounded like I was upset but I was not at all. I only had a minute to type that comment and I just did not word it well. I was actually coming to your defense because I saw comments from some people who seemed annoyed because of your position on annulments vs. the married priest story. I was trying to say that you can't really compare the two. I didn't elaborate, but I was thinking of how rare it is for priests to be released from their vow of celibacy and are allowed to marry, vs. the sheer number of annulments, which we know some are probably for weak reasons, as you mentioned here. I said that there are some legitimate cases of both annulments and priests who are allowed to leave their vocation and can marry. I truly wasn't attacking. I removed the comment. I won't comment anymore when I'm restricted on time, so my thoughts come out correctly!
@MW-he4cp Thank you so much for explaining. That means a lot. I hope I didn't sound negative either. I guess we both need to watch out! God bless you, my friend. We'll learn together.
@@DrChristineBacon Thank you. Yes I've learned not to comment when I have a short lunch break 😂. This was a good talk by the way.
Marriage does not "establish a partnership." It creates a conjugal rights contract.
What about not being able to support more children financially?
@@teacherreads1076 the Lord will ALWAYS provide somehow. We walk by faith and not by sight.
@@DrChristineBacon that was my mistake thinking we couldn't support more children financially. Thanks For reminding me Christine.
Curious if the couple was using barrier method right on wedding night and honeymoon to have children later… is that annulment ground?
Should the couple remarry to make it sacramental?
So if the husband cheats on the wife, does this mean the marriage can be annulled?
Yes, but don’t forget the wife who was cheated on also benefits from the annulment.
@michellebe-t3p no. Infidelity after the marriage had nothing to do with whether or not a marriage was valid. The only thing that matters is what happened BEFORE and on the day OF the marriage.
@@DrChristineBaconI have struggled with this for years. Traditional catholic doctrine was always no divorce. I would consider myself Traditional.
Unfortunately, I have been brutalized by a narcissistic wife. Both prior and post marriage. Does pre- Vatican recognize annulment? I believe that I was a. Under duress and b. She never intended to honor vows. There is no truth in her.
@paisley2342 file for annulment if you believe she never intended to honor her vows. I'm sorry she hurt you. You're a good man to seek to do God's will despite your pain.
if the husband never took the marriage seriously from the beginning then it can be annuled
It’s good that you had him on. I stopped watching him several years ago when he started lecturing on our faith based on our vote. I am a devout Catholic and did NOT stop listening to all Priests but I did stop following his channel. I watched him take a breath and think before he said something and his response was honest and he stuck to Catholic Doctrine. Good! I truly enjoyed a lot of their videos but I just stopped. I am reconsidering my stance on that, unless he does it again this next election. We can’t be American and pick and choose our freedoms and there was public knowledge that has been forgotten, which weighs heavily in my stance. It is said that the average adult memory lasts about 20 years and I believe that. It’s unfortunate and Catholics have dishonored a good Catholic and broken one of the Commandments in doing so. But my point was stretched way out. Sorry. I am glad Fr. Alar is maturing, and I love Peter but he could be impetuous at times. We are ALL human!
Good video! It was good that he didn’t dance around those topics but was very forthright. We all need that and some things should not be left to interpretation when one’s (MANY Someone’s!) eternal life is at stake! I don’t mind discussing specifics but am weary of fanaticism and routine death threats from some. Tired today, even though it’s a good day to die and if GOD has more use for me, he will see to it. I win, either way. My children are grown, my grandson’s will be devastated but won’t be scarred for life. It’s not that hard to type a closing sentence. Another symptom of my fatigue. Thanks!
I wish more priests would speak out on our voting as faithful Catholics. Maybe we wouldn't have a pro abortion Catholic president.
@@michellemcdermott2026it should be an anti christ president.
@@michellemcdermott2026 - why do people say he is Pro abortion?!? He has NEVER said that! Pro Choice does not mean pro abortion. A liar combine the two into one
@@maobfh He has said publicly he supports abortion for 9 months. Also pro choice is pro abortion. It doesn't even make sense .
@@michellemcdermott2026 - pro choice is NOT pro abortion. An example - GOD is pro choice and he leaves us to make our choices on earth - but no one will convince me that he is pro abortion. It is a silly arguments - semantics, but it is why I say that a liar combined the two to as one because they are not. I will fall flat on my nose if I learn that Biden is pro abortion. I think he is pro choice. There is a HUGE difference.
What about marriages involving disparity of cult?
@carolhoward4923 What about them? We didn't have time to discuss everything. Hopefully, I can get him back on!
A very informative talk, but there was a contradiction. Father Chris said, the “only ordered and proper sexual activity within marriage” is the male finishing inside the female. Dr. Bacon correctly adds, His seed must be placed always inside the female and nowhere else.
Father Chris then says the Church comes right out in Theology of the Body and teaches oral activity on the female “is allowed except as long as it’s within the total marital act” but on the male if it ends up finishing prior to the coitus that is not proper and a lot of people have no knowledge of this. This is a contradiction. How can there be any oral activity on the female if the “only ordered and proper sexual activity within marriage is the male finishing inside the female?” I hope Father Chris or Dr. Bacon will see this question and answer it. Also, “where” does the Church teach that oral or manual stimulation is “acceptable or not” on the male or on the female before the male finishes inside the female? Sadly, some priests are teaching oral and manual stimulation is acceptable while others say it is not. I say, do what the Catholic Church teaches but where is the answer on what the Church officially teaches???
TOB effectively says there is no such thing as secondary ends, therefore there can be no legal objection to "anything goes."
Are bjs/ oral, acceptable on the husband and wife?
@dellchica2373 as Fr. Chris clarified, the man's seed can ONLY be expelled into the vagina of his wife. Every other location is a sin. But he can pleasure his wife orally to arouse her and ONLY as long as it is part of the marital act, meaning he intends to penetrate her afterward as an act that remains open to life.
@@DrChristineBaconeven if the couple is in their 50s and no longer " fertile" is marital relations acceptable at this time?? Yes i know he graphically explained this but even then there are still so many "grey areas "...
@dellchica2373 Yes. It's still the same at this age as God is ALWAYS capable of creating life even after menopause. Look at Abraham and Sarah. As such, age or hysterectomies, etc. are never excuses to do something God has forbidden.
@@DrChristineBaconthank you❤
