Article summary: 

The factors lead to Pope Shenouda’s statement considering civil marriage as adultery are as follows: Although he is not specialized in theology, he does not accept any interpretations of the Bible other than his; he is aware of his power and is certain that none may call him into account, even the government itself; and being a monk, the pope knows nothing about marital life.
