Clergy Marriage Act 1548
The Clergy Marriage Act 1548 ( 2 & 3 Edw. 6. c. 21) was an Act of the Parliament of England. Part of the English Reformation, it abolished the prohibition on marriage of priests within the Church of England. (Before Henry VIII declared himself Supreme Head of the Church of England, ecclesiastical matters were governed exclusively by Roman Catholic canon law, over which the English monarch had no authority.) The whole Act, so far as unrepealed, was repealed by section 1 of, and Part II of the Schedule to, the Statute Law (Repeals) Act 1969. (By virtue of Section 10 of the Interpretation Act 1889, this did not revive the ban.) Section 2 This section, from "and be it" to "aforesaide" was repealed by section 1(1) of, and Part I of the Schedule to, the Statute Law Revision Act 1888. Section 3 This section was repealed by section 1 of, and the Schedule to, the Statute Law Revision Act 1887.

Citation Of United Kingdom Legislation
Citation of United Kingdom legislation includes the systems used for legislation passed by devolved parliaments and assemblies, for secondary legislation, and for prerogative instruments. It is relatively complex both due to the different sources of legislation in the United Kingdom, and because of the different histories of the constituent countries of the United Kingdom. Citation of primary legislation as a whole Each piece of legislation passed by the Parliament of the United Kingdom ("Westminster") is known as an Act of Parliament. Each modern Act of Parliament has a title (also known as a "long title") and a short title. A short title provides a convenient name for referring to an individual Act, such as "Jamaica Independence Act 1962". The long title is more comprehensive in scope, providing a sometimes very detailed description of the Act's provisions that is too unwieldy for convenient citation; for example, the long title of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 is a ...

Clerical Celibacy
Clerical celibacy is the requirement in certain religions that some or all members of the clergy be unmarried. Clerical celibacy also requires abstention from deliberately indulging in sexual thoughts and behavior outside of marriage, because these impulses are regarded as sinful. Within the Catholic Church, clerical celibacy is mandated for all clergy in the Latin Church except in the permanent diaconate. Exceptions are sometimes admitted for ordination to transitional diaconate and priesthood on a case-by-case basis for married clergymen of other churches or communities who become Catholics, but ordination of married men to the episcopacy is excluded (see Personal ordinariate). Clerical marriage is not allowed and therefore, if those for whom in some particular Church celibacy is optional (such as permanent deacons in the Latin Church) wish to marry, they must do so before ordination. Eastern Catholic Churches either follow the same rules as the Latin Church or require celibacy ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
