Bishop Sam Jacobs of Houma-Thibodaux on Cohabitation
"What does the church teach concerning cohabitation? Basically, the church reflects the teaching found at the beginning of Genesis, which Jesus himself reaffirmed when questioned about divorce. Namely, a man and a woman should leave his/her father and mother and cling to one another. The two shall become one flesh not just for a few months or years but for life in a permanent, exclusive, sacramental union. This oneness was seen in the context of married love and commitment with openness to procreation."
