Good for him. We're with him. This gay thing is in general, a hollywood creation....and we all know who pushed this.

In the meatime, they're screwing up our kids head's in school. What a rotten, depraved government.

The fact that this is controversial proves that we're living in post-Christian --even post-pagan-- times.

The bizarre phenomenon of sex-change operations is a direct attack on human nature itself.

Do you hear that Newt? Or maybe you should convert back to something else?

C’mon Associated Press, at least get the headline right: It SHOULD read “Pope reminds willfully stupid post-christian takers what authentic marriage used to mean.”

I hope somebody asks Her Heinous about that publicly. There’s a new sheriff in SF, Archbishop Cordileone, and it might not take much on Ole Nan’s part to provoke him to action.

Good for the Pope!

If anything was wrong about the past popes during my life it was their lack of forcefully reminding Catholics of the righteous paths and denouncing sinful behavior.Which includes letting too many priests and nuns wander off into so-called social justice Communism whilst abandoning Catholic teachings.

Talk is cheap. When it’s backed up by real, substantive action, I’ll be impressed.
