Catholic and Enjoying It!
Andrew Sullivan assures us that the push for gay marriage will never *ever* lead to persecution of Christians.
Meanwhile, The European anti-discrimination directive is now official law. Governments have two years to implement it. The UK has just ended its consultation on the matter. What does it mean?
The Roman Catholic bishops of England, Wales and Scotland along with most other Christian groups are upset about the new European anti-discrimination directive. ‘Homosexual groups campaigning for same sex marriage may declare themselves offended by the presentation of the Catholic Church’s moral teaching on homosexual acts; Catholics may declare themselves offended by a ‘Gay Pride’ march; an atheist may be offended by religious pictures in art gallery; a Muslim may be offended by any picture representing the human form,’ warn the Catholic bishops. ‘It is not clear whether ‘goods and services’ would apply to the activities of a Catholic priest, if, as recently occurred, he were to refuse to take a booking for a Church Hall from a group of witches.’
How do you think this will play out in the Land Where All Religions are Equally Superior to the Catholic Church? Just ask a Canadian Catholic.
