Former Roman Catholic priest Alberto Cutié married Ruhama Buni Canellis in a courthouse. The couple will also have a church wedding…
But Cutié, who left the Catholic church to become an Episcopalian in late May, will have to wait more than a week before his new church recognizes the marriage in a religious ceremony. That will take place in an unnamed church under Rt. Rev. Leo Frade, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Southeast Florida.
Cutié, 40, and his wife, 35-year-old Ruhama Buni Canellis, quietly slipped into the Coral Gables Branch Court at 3100 Ponce de Leon Blvd. through a gated back entrance around noon Tuesday, avoiding a growing group of news crews.
The couple presented identification and proof of premarital counseling to a clerk as they filled out a marriage license application. Then, they joined Miami-Dade County Judge Jacqueline Schwartz in her chambers for a quick ceremony, according to a court employee…
He and Canellis left the Catholic church just days prior during a private ceremony at Miami’s Trinity Cathedral, where Cutié also announced that he was starting a year-long process to become an Episcopal priest.
Cutié left his position at St. Francis de Sales Catholic church in Miami Beach when photographs showing him nuzzling Canellis on a Florida beach — a violation of his vow of celibacy — were published in a celebrity magazine in early May.
Good for you, dude. The Catholic Church will probably catch up with reality in another century or two.
#57, Alphie,
find a conservative “refuting” an argument with ad hominem only.
OK, that isn’t hard.

another,
And that is just a few from one topic. I can find some even on this topic.
The point is you usually only use ad hominem attacks. When you do have some “fact”, it is a piece of bullshit Boss Limpdick fabricated and you swallowed.
Is not a problem of being a catholic priest, but he used to give lessons of good behaviour on latin TV, and then going out with his girl in the back. So it is “do as I say, not as I do” case, he can do whatever he wants with his life, just dont preach things you don’t believe or practice.
Mr Fusion, quit picking on alfred. He’s 7 dollars away from shitting in a shoebox under a freeway overpass.
21 When thou shalt vow a vow unto the LORD thy God, thou shalt not slack to pay it: for the LORD thy God will surely require it of thee; and it would be sin in thee.
22 But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.
(Deu 23:21-22 KJV)</b|
Religiously speaking, if he vowed celibacy, then he sins not fulfilling his vow, stupid as it was…
5 Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay. (Ecc 5:5 KJV)
Celibacy is good for those whom the LORD has ordained…not for anyone else…
BUT if one vows, then they must pay, of it is sin unto him…
“or” it is sin unto him
#57 Alfred1, is Orrin Hatch’s statement that terrorists “are going to throw everything they can between now and the election to try and elect Kerry” the sort of rational right-thinking discourse you prefer over the loony ad hominem attacks of the left? Of course, then Hatch went on to explain exactly how he knew what the terrorists were up to — NOT!
I was hoping we could make more progress, but I may have to refer your case to another therapist with more experience. And yes, that means that I’m admitting defeat
Lest I be misunderstood..he vowed Catholic vows…therefore he should keep them…as he vowed them to God…
Its irrelevant he wants to be something else now…he should have thought of that…feared God…before he vowed…
he sins…
I say that as a Christian who is “other”…neither Catholic, Protestant, or Orthodox…as one who loves all three…and counts all three as my brothers and sisters in the faith…
Yes…I said that…he sins…he failed to keep his Catholic faith…it is irrelevant it might not be according to truth in scripture…is is material he believe it was… and he vowed to God…therefore he sinned by leaving the vow…
it is material he believed it was… and as he vowed to God…he sinned by not fulfilling the vow….it is irrelevant, immaterial, and incompetent, whether the vow is “correct” or not….one cannot vow to God, and fail to pay…
5 Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay. (Ecc 5:5 KJV)
He shouldn’t have made the vows if he had no intention of keeping them…and he meant to keep them…then he should…

Strangely enough, you don’t have to be priest before becoming a bishop, cardinal, or even pope. Go figure, eh?
In fact, it is even legal under canon law for married men and women to be non-clerical priests. Unfortunately, the Catholic won’t recognize them due to a 13th century French ruling. Seriously. They keep canon lawyers around for just such an occasion.
In other words:
21 When thou shalt vow a vow unto the LORD thy God, thou shalt not slack to pay it: for the LORD thy God will surely require it of thee; and it would be sin in thee.
22 But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.
23 That which is gone out of thy lips thou shalt keep and perform; even a freewill offering, according as thou hast vowed unto the LORD thy God, which thou hast promised with thy mouth.
(Deu 23:21-23 KJV)
You really don’t have any idea how ironic it is to use the King James Version to talk up Catholic moral law?
#74 Yes I do…but the Douay reads the same:
21 When thou hast made a vow to the Lord thy God, thou shalt not delay to pay it: because the Lord thy God will require it. And if thou delay, it shall be imputed to thee for a sin.
22 If thou wilt not promise, thou shalt be without sin.
23 But that which is once gone out of thy lips, thou shalt observe, and shalt do as thou hast promised to the Lord thy God, and hast spoken with thy own will and with thy own mouth.
(Deu 23:21-23 DRA)
# 37 bill: I can’t marry you I’m a R.C. priest would be convent sometimes…”
Hee,hee,hee… he said “convent” – Actually, the nuns probably hear that a lot!
# 54 Fusion: “I don’t call myself an “Infidel” or “Gentile” either.”
Well said, Fusion. I seldom need to identify myself, either. When I do, I usually have a couple of drinks, proclaim myself dull-witted and big-dicked with a fat wallet. The girls swoon.
# 63 leecher: “…just dont preach things you don’t believe or practice.:
Of course, he probably never preached celibacy so it’s really not a case of “do as I say, not as I do”
Actually they don’t use the Douay-Rheims Version anymore either. When were you born, the 1760′s?
Alphie,
Hey, I posted some ad hominems for you. No comment? Are you now suggesting, or even just thinking they don’t count? You posted another eight comments since I posted the evidence.
I guess that means Alphie is OWNED.
Alphie,
This book is highly recommended for all true Christians. It will help you when God is not around
