Review title: Vindicated?
Product review: In a 1997 Amazon review of this book, canon lawyer Edward Peters called attention to a review he published in an October 1997 issue of the National Catholic Register: "I am convinced that the Church's canonical system for assessing marriages is theologically sound, juridically coherent, and pastorally effective. It deserves better than it received in Kennedy's book."I cannot speak/write the language of a canon lawyer. Yet, 12 years later, it is well worth noting that the Roman Rota apparently agreed with Sheila Rauch-Kennedy, with regard to the declaration of nullity (of her marriage to Joseph Kennedy III), being itself invalid!Since first reading Rauch-Kennedy's book, I have become an avid follower of JP II's & Benedict XVI's annual addresses to the Roman Rota. Again I am no canon lawyer. However, it certainly appears that the Holy Fathers have had serious concerns about the operations of tribunals in the past few decades.
