Archbishop Severs Ties with University’s Center for Marriage and Family over Sex Before Marriage Proposal

On Friday, I told you about the family ministry folks who said that cohabitation before marriage wasn’t a sin, right?

Well, good news! LifeSite News reports:

Archbishop Elden F. Curtiss of the Omaha archdiocese forcefully rejected CMF’s creative interpretation of Catholic teaching in a letter to U.S. Catholic. In his letter, the Omaha World-Herald reports, the Archbishop reaffirmed that, “Couples who live together without marriage do in fact live in sin objectively.”

In addition, he said, “Because the position of the authors is contrary to church teaching about the intrinsic evil of fornication, I have disassociated the Omaha Archdiocese from the Center for Marriage and Family at Creighton University.”
