I am not. I am well aware of what the Catechism has to say on the matter.

That should not, however, influence public policy in any way.

Why not? Why shouldn’t Catholics have just as much right to push for their version of morality as do the irreligious? Our religion is not just something we just practice for an hour on Sundays and then ignore the rest of the week. As a Catholic you should oppose homosexual marriage because it is normalizing a sin that puts people’s immortal souls in danger. Are you interested in the fate of people souls or just interested in feeling “inclusive” regardless of the consequences to those who sins you affirm
 
Can a faithful Catholic here please tell me why we should not believe that we are in the midst of the Great Apostasy?

Seriously.

Look up all that was done to prove your point untrue. Even Gore agreed. All the information is on the internet. But even if your point was true, do you think it would be okay in this case? Oh, payback? The vote of the people on this was recorded as the majority. Otherwise, the No on Prop 8 people would have tried to use that as fuel.

It is a requirement of being a liberal that you blame Bush at least five times a day.

I think that liberals really should build a monument to Bush - if they can’t say anything else, it’s always: “It’s Bush’s fault.” What would they do without him?
 
the problem is that the gays are like whack a mole with these Law suits, you whack down one and a new one pops up. No matter how many they lose, they’ve got three dozen other brand new ones ready to go. All they hope to get a liberal judge every once in a while who’ll create law from the bench, it doesn’t even have to be often. So even if they only win one Law suit for every ten they file, those 1 in 10 still add up when you get into the hundreds, and they are hard to overturn.

We need a US Constitutional Amendment on marriage to stop this nonsense, their “whack a mole” strategy with never go away

pfft. We have a Constitutional process for elections, via the Electoral College.

Guess who every major newspaper who conducted a recount had winning FL? Hint: it wasn’t algore.
 
Court issued a stay. No new gay marriages for now.

Judge knows he’s going to be overturned 🙂

I believe that this ruling, and the clear support for it, is a major sign of how far people have removed themselves from the faith. I never did believe that people would just wake-up one day and follow some other system, I always believed it would be a slow (to us) pulling away due to societal pressures. I would guess that at least 90% of all people claiming to be Christians do not really hold fast to the faith, they have swapped the real faith and the truth for political correctness and tolerance and science and secularism and a series of other personal ideologies that they have allowed into their lives.

It is a very small number who truly follow the faith.
 
The thing that drives me nut is we would not be in this mess if Catholics voted like Catholics.:mad:

So why can’t we be that tenacious? 😦

Because they are called “whorehouses and brothels”

The difference between a brothel and bathhouse is the difference between a restaurant and a dumpster.

One involves a level of commerce and presentation and the other allows anyone passing by to pick through it.
