Resumo: | A case at the tribunal presents the following facts. Jack, who is baptized but claims no denominational adherence, is seeking an annulment from a previous marriage to a Protestant in order to marry a Catholic. It seems that Jack, the son of non-practicing Catholic parents, was born with some medical problem and was baptized by a Protestant nurse in the hospital who feared he was in danger. However, the baptism is not recorded anywhere, and Jack has never practiced the Christian faith, either as a youth or as an adult. Is Jack a Protestant in virtue of the denomination of the minister of baptism, or a Catholic in virtue of the parents? I understand there is no such thing as a “generic Christian,” so he must be one or the other. Does it matter whether the minister or parents intended that Jack be a Catholic? If he is a Catholic, could this be a lack of form case, or must Jack be considered to have formally defected from the Church? |
