A word on the "evil of fornication"

One simply does not expect this sort of controversy to rear its ugly head in Nebraska but nonetheless it seems that the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Omaha and the Creighton Center for Marriage and Family at Creighton University, which a Roman Catholic institution have determined that they have irreconcilable differences and must go their separate ways. It is uncertain whether the relationship was ever consummated and, if it was not, it is likely that the two would approach the Vatican for an annulment.

What has caused this terrible and tragic discord in what must otherwise have been an idyllic relationship? It seems that two members of the CCMF family published an article that suggested that if two engaged people lived together before getting married they were not necessarily on the direct route to Hell and Damnation and could in fact get into heaven like those who buy their way in.

I wonder who will get custody of the children?
