What's interesting in the new succession rules is that princes are now allowed to marry Catholics, however if their son or daughter is raised Catholic by their spouse then that son or daughter is immediately taken out of the line of succession.

It's here. The reason that you get knocked out of line if you are raised Catholic is that if you become King or Queen you are automatically the head of the Church of England.

In 'The English' by Jeremy Paxman, a CofE chap is thoughtful about whether you have to believe in god to be CofE, so I guess being Catholic wouldn't be too bad :-D

Last time it happened, the king escaped the country with his life and his daughter was invited to replace him as monarch.
