Pope Paul to issue mixed marriage decree at Vatican
Vatican officials expect Pope Paul VI to promulgate a mixed marriage decree next week at the Ecumenical Council. The change allows an oral pledge by the non Catholic spouse to respect the Catholic faith and raise children Catholic, a move seen as aiding or hindering Christian unity. The council debates a religious liberty declaration, drawing some opposition and support. Cardinal Ritter urged passage to atone for past Catholic persecutions against non Catholics.
