Catholic cardinal criticises gay marriage plan

Anyone surprised?

Apparently this shithead thinks he can make his position seem stronger by equating gay marriage with legalised slavery. I wish I could say it makes sense in context, but...
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Thankfully he only represents 8% of our population. Oh wait, they, by a majority of about 60-40 think marriage should not be just for heterosexuals. Must be a shame when your flock disagrees with you.

Never seems to stop them from running their fucking mouths, though.
About time the press stopped covering those scumbags.

Though he was well aware of the child rape going on at the time, it's not actually true that Ratzinger did nothing. He issued an order to keep the matter quiet. Rather proactive, really.

That's a very good point: so, by conflating the two in the way he did, that cardinal was actually endorsing same-sex marriage in a backhanded sort of way. I wonder if he realised the implications of what he said? Think we ought to tell him?
