It's Not That Hard

Yet more proof that church and sensical thought are as far apart as church and state should be:

A high-ranking Roman Catholic clergyman says religious freedom is being threatened in Canada by same-sex marriage. Marc Cardinal Ouellet told a Senate committee that priests sometimes don't even feel comfortable preaching their church's morality for fear of being branded homophobes.

Here's a thought: STOP PREACHING HOMOPHOBIC DOCTRINE.

Geez! Get over yourselves! I, for one, think that this is an excellent example of religious freedom in action - the flock have recognised the social change that has taken place in this country, and that extends to recognising how antiquated and creaky their Catholic church is. If the Canadian priesthood is truly concerned, they should be pressuring "Maledict" Ratzinger to allow some flexibility in the dogma. Or are they more upset at being "branded" homophobes than being homophobes who fly under the radar?
