A priest cited a Catholic source saying that “committed sex” is not sinful. In other words, if two people have been living together without being married, the sexual acts they perform are not sinful because they are in a committed relationship. Any thoughts? Is anyone familiar with this “source.”

God Bless,

What is the source?
 
No, they have to do their solemn vows and be bounded by the Holy Spirit, mediated by a priest.

This is contradictory. Marriage is the commitment. Those who are not married are not committed.

Even being engaged is not being committed. It’s making a promise to be committed in the future.

I too would like to know what “Catholic source” said non-marital sex is okay.

Someone needs to inform Father that pulling something from his behind is not citing a source.

if by committed sex you mean, once the commitment is made within the bonds of matrimony, then absolutely its ok.

if there is no marriage, there is no commitment.

so committed sex outside marriage is an oxymoron.

its not real.

I always thought it was sinful and was shocked when I heard him say that. He couldn’t remember the exact name of the source.

The Catechism clearly teaches fornication is a violation of the Sixth Commandment.

I would ask him for his “source” and correct his erroneous statement. He could do a lot of damage by making this type of outrageous, and incorrect, statement.

To answer the question of whether or not this is morally acceptable I will have to quote my mother “Not no, but HELL NO”
 
Ok calm down people, he get’s the point now, falling out of chairs, hell no’s and references to satan is rather stupid. It can be deduced from these silly comments the average age is around 14 in here.

he is mistaken (charitable assumption), or misinformed (hard to believe given his training) or downright lying either for what he calls “pastoral reasons” a code word for the opposite of “if it feels good do it”, in other words “if it don’t make you feel bad, do it”.

then it did not happen. the general rule in rebutting such remarks is to demand a reliable source.
