churches have the right to turn down anyone already. my husband and i got turned down by the priest at the roman catholic church where he grew up-we hadn't gone thru the six months of 'instruction' that they
supposedly require. hell, we hadn't even known each other six months when we got married!!
i say supposedly because a few years later, his younger bro got married to a non catholic, no instruction, in the same church-but a different priest. now, she was knocked up...maybe he was just in a hurry to get her married and converted?
anyway, we got married by the judge, now the mayor of el dorado. almost 23 years later, and it's all good.
