Question / Issue:

Is a mixed racial marriage the same as a mixed marriage?

Answer / Resources:

[click link(s) below, as applicable]

No. A mixed marriage refers to a marriage in which one party is Catholic and the other party is not Catholic. Mixed marriages may present grave dangers to the spouse and to children (try here for some examples) and are undesirable/prohibited – in contrast, racially mixed marriages in which both parties are Catholic do NOT present these dangers.

"... grieving very much that there are among Catholics those who, becoming shamefully deranged by a mad love, do not wholeheartedly abhor and think that they should refrain from these detestable [mixed] marriages which Holy Mother Church has continually condemned and interdicted, and praising greatly the zeal of those bishops, who, by proposing severe penalties, endeavor to restrain Catholics from uniting themselves to heretics in this sacrilegious bond, His Holiness encourages, exhorts, and advises seriously and gravely all bishops, vicars apostolic, parish priests, missionaries, and every other faithful minister of God and of the Church who reside in those regions, to deter, in so far as they can, Catholics of both sexes from entering into marriages of this kind to the destruction of their own souls, and to make it their business to avert in every good way and efficaciously to hinder these same marriages." (Pope Benedict XIV, "Matrimonia, quae in locis", 1741 A.D.)
