And annulment is tough to get -- unless you're rich and/or powerful. Senator Legarda got an annulment after nineteen years of marriage and two kids.
Sorry for being off-topic, but that just annoys the heck out of me.

Bob,
The Catholic church is the same the world over. Look at Ted Kennedy in the US. He got an annulment after a decades long marriage, with multiple children. When my sister applied to the church for an annulment, they told her exactly how much it would cost her. She left the church and hasn't been back since.
