Who was the excommunicated archbishop who married in the Unification Church?

  • Desmond Tutu

  • Emmanuel Milingo

  • Thomas Cranmer

  • Francis Spellman

Answer

Emmanuel Milingo, the excommunicated archbishop of Lusaka, Zambia, garnered significant attention in 2001 for marrying Maria Sung, a follower of the Unification Church, founded by Sun Myung Moon. This marriage constituted a violation of the Roman Catholic Church's vow of celibacy and its opposition to the Unification Church's theological doctrines, leading to Milingo's subsequent excommunication.
