Wow! You have to give to Pope Francis for being nouveau. He on the regular pretty much will say something shocking or interesting to say the least in comparison to Popes of old. Now, Pope Francis tells Catholics, you don't have to breed like rabbits.

As a semi practicing Catholic, I use the term "practicing" loosely. That being said, I was one who was married in the church. Here is what the Priest said to me just before walking down the aisle, "leave yourself open to having children." An ambiguous or vague statement for sure and open for interpretation. We had two more children after getting married, and now we're done. Our Priest at the time didn't say for how long or give any further explanation.

In my opinion the Catholic Church's stance is out of date on a lot of their policy. But it is my Church and I think with Pope Francis, they're coming around, albeit slowly, but they're catching up.

Don't forget, if you're getting married soon, be at our Maine wedding Association Bridal Show on Sunday. The details are below.
