Klara Ćavar ; Vrhbosanska katolička teologija u Sarajevu, Sarajevo, Bosna i Hercegovina

Abstract

From its beginnings humankind has assigned to the institution of marriage its intrinsic sanctity and religious character. In today's world people are ubiquitously opting for church weddings, be it for the sake of tradition or the social imperative, less commonly so for religious reasons. The issue of a valid marriage celebration, the effect of a lack of personal faith upon the sacrament of Matrimony, the requirement for proper intentions, and the problem of the preclusion of sacramentality by a positive act of the will are some of the issues which are dealt with in this essay.
