[history]
THE head of Italy's bishops has outraged the gay community by comparing a Bill that would grant rights to same-sex couples to allowing incest and pedophilia.
Archbishop Angelo Bagnasco, who was appointed last month to head the Italian Bishops Conference, is leading the Church's campaign against the legislation which the Vatican says would weaken the institution of marriage.

What was so wrong with what he said? Seems to me the man recognizes the "slippery slope".

You seem to have missed the food fight going on over at the Knights of Columbus thread posted by Alaninsa. It is quite illuminating.

It's not a grave, foolish comparison. They have a grave, foolish and disgusting lifestyle. The Bishop is merely telling the truth.

I hope so. I can't think of a more vile and evil group.

The Bishop merely pointed to the portion of the male homo lifestyle that is still hidden from public view and yet unwritten into the will and Grace show. Much of his opinion has likely been influenced by the homosexual invasion of the priesthood those many years ago and what this did to the Catholic Church.

Why is "row" such a popular word these days. It's Islamic row, gay row, cartoon row, damit I'm tired of all the row!

If the press did not support and endorse the perverted point of view, then there would be no 'row'. It is when the 'mainstream press' supports one side of the argument that these issues become so divisive. The Abp should stand by his guns and stay on the issue, just as he has done.
Prayers up for his courage and witness.

The relevant quote:
Why say 'no' to forms of legally recognised co-habitation which create alternatives to the family? Why say 'no' to incest? ... Why say 'no' to the pedophile party in Holland?”
Why, indeed? "No" is the only answer these perverts deserve.

So, where is he wrong? Doubt there will be a reasoned reply from the homo "community". They's rather scream and prance around.
To: jstassis
No.
"No" is the only answer bigots deserve.

Amazing reaction considering many gay men were assaulted as children..... Gotta love how mental illness manefests itself.
To: doorgunner69
They's rather scream and prance around. Have you ever seen a 'gay rights' parade? I was downtown DC for a concert, several years ago, and happened to witness such. If they restricted themselves to screaming and prancing, it would be an improvement.

Right and wrong have no meaning to a liberal because to apply such judgments would be to discriminate (between good and evil, right and wrong).
