Presbyterian Church joins protestant group against Catholic marriage terms
The Presbyterian Church in the U S A voted to ally with the Protestant Episcopal Church to oppose marriages between members and Roman Catholics under Catholic conditions. The stance, approved on the fifth day of the 162nd general assembly, parallels a prior Episcopal resolution. Objections center on promises that children of such marriages be raised Catholic. The assembly also denounced mercy killings, warning euthanasia would invite dangerous practices.
