Description
Summary:Privilegium fidei or priviledge of the faith cases generally include four procedures: a) pauline priviledge, b) favour of the faith, c) polygamy/polyandry, and d) persecution or captivity. It won't be wrong, however, to add a fifth one: e) non-consu,,ated marriage between a baptised and a non-baptised; can. 1142 (CCEO, can. 862) does not speak of "ratified" marriage but jost of "non-consummated", which therefore, includes both ratified (can. 1061 § 1) and natural marriages. In all the above five cases there are two elements that are constant, i.e., i) one is either baptised, and ii) at least one of them, including the pars desponsa, is either baptised or about to be baptised. Since the motive for granting dissolution of marriage vond, in all the above cases, being the priviledge of the faith, one presumes that there be uniformity in their substantive norms. However, it is not the case; this article tries to highlight those differences.
