At stake is the identity and survival of the family: father, mother and children. At stake are the lives of many children who will be discriminated against in advance, and deprived of their human development given by a father and a mother and willed by God. At stake is the total rejection of God’s law engraved in our hearts.
Let us not be naive: This is not simply a political struggle, but it is an attempt to destroy God’s plan.
-- Pope Francis I (then known as Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio) on same-sex marriage in 2010
There was a lot of talk over the last week about the possibility the Catholic Church could elect a pope who would bring a more streamlined and modern approach to the organization.
Oh well.
