According to the Catholic Church, my father had something in common with polygamists. Since the sacrament of marriage is insoluble, a person who receives a civil divorce is still married in the eyes of this church. If he weds another woman, as my father did, outside the bonds of Holy Matrimony, he may well end up on his deathbed, as my father did, assured by visitors that he does not deserve forgiveness for his sins because he thought he could marry two different women.
