That sounds so HAWT.*drools*

Anyway, Im not Catholic, but I met Cordileone once when he was the Bishop of Oakland----he seemed like a nice man.

Looks like I made a mistake with the first link in the OP.

Here it is.

Or do you perhaps not think that idea would go over so well?

That's a legal battle that was lost years ago. Today, SS"M" is on the front burner. Nothing I can do about that.

Believe what you want, just don't expect others to believe exactly as you or not allow others to pursue happiness in their own lives. If your reasons are bible based or some other religious doctrine, then okay--but you can't force everyone to have those beliefs either since I am quite sure that we have freedom of religion (or non religion) in this country. It's pretty simple and there's really no legitimate debate to discuss. Discrimination of any kind must be stamped out!

Ten ways that same-sex "marriage" will harm society.

Ah, but you don't just want to ban same-sex marriage -- you want to ban homosexuality entirely.

That ship, too, has sailed. Nothing you can do about that. No matter what Tony Scalia says.

True - I would criminalize both if it were in my power, but it isn't, so I seldom propose the ideas.

Thank goodness the Catholic Church believes in forgiveness. (unless you're gay)

Totally inaccurate. It's "...unless you're WesternPilgrim."

PS. I'm Catholic.
