Yes to gay marriage means no social services, Catholic Church warns

Yes to gay marriage means no social services, Catholic Church warns. . . . . Sounds like children in a schoolyard, with one punk telling the others that he is going to take his ball away and go home, since things are not going or he is not getting his way.

The following has been clipped from The Bilerico Project Report published 15 September 2009.

"It is remarkable the arrogance of this craven coven of priests and bishops who believe that they can interfere and intervene in the lives of the so-called "faithful" to suit their interests and purposes.  Where paedophilia failed to bring in recruits to their ranks, now they prey (and pray) on the inner fears of the common man with their ever so NOT subtle homophobia to control the masses. And all this under the guise of a tax-free "church" status rather than as a guide to individual spirituality.  Once again Holy Mother Roman Catholic Church steps in to where she is not wanted and in to where she does not belong."  -- TK

"I encourage them [the Mormons] to promote the values they believe in and defend their religious principles in advertisements, but civil rights have nothing to do with religious principles," said Atali Staffler, who was raised Mormon but [who] is not active in the church [sic].

"You think that America is evolving into a gay-friendly nation," said Tandal Smith, "but what happened in Texas and Utah show us it's still a long way off."

OF COURSE . . . .

What's next . . . the Catholic Church and abortion?
