Episcopal bishops push canon on divorce and marriage
The house of bishops will consider amendments to the constitution and the marriage and divorce report. A 11 to 1 majority favors barring ministers from solemnizing marriages where one partner is already married, unless the previous union was annulled by civil decree. A minority proposes an exception for legally divorced adulterers declared innocent by a court. The aim is uniform state statutes via enacted laws.
