Q. 1014. Can the Church dispense from or remove these impediments to marriage?
A. The Church can dispense from or remove the impediments to marriage that arise from its own laws; but it cannot dispense from impediments that arise from the laws of God and nature. Every lawmaker can change or excuse from the laws made by himself or his equals, but he cannot, of his own authority, change or excuse from laws made by a higher power.
Hence, anyone that gets a 'divorce' and 'remarries' is still married to the first person married beyond that the individual is committing adultery
It is very sad today that couples view the holy sacrament merely as a piece of paper that is null and void by irreconcilable differences. People think nothing of their wandering eye and lustful thoughts of one who is not their spouse. Why are people not horrified at the idea of multiple bedfellows? Why don't people value the thought of being the one and only? I know of someone that has been married a couple of times and is recently engaged. I asked how many times they will get married. The response? "As many times as it takes to get it right."
