Archbishop: Marriage Equality Was Satan's Creation

[William769]

The Roman Catholic archbishop of Minneapolis-St. Paul says marriage equality is a concept that came straight from Satan.

Archbishop John Nienstedt urged Minnesota's Catholics to reject marriage equality laws, but the state rejected a ballot measure for a marriage ban last November, and then the governor approved a bill to establish legal marriage rights for same-sex couples earlier this year. As the state started issuing marriage licenses to couples August 1, Nienstedt wrote in Legatus Magazine that the traditional family is now under attack.

"Today many evil forces have set their sights on the dissolution of marriage and the debasing of family life," he wrote. "Sodomy, abortion, contraception, pornography, the redefinition of marriage, and the denial of objective truth are just some of the forces threatening the stability of our civilization. The source of these machinations is none other than the Father of Lies. Satan knows all too well the value that the family contributes to the fabric of a good solid society, as well as the future of God’s work on earth."

3. I am appalled at his remarks.

I suppose he must believe what he says, but my god! He sounds medieval at best.

Our family life is not debased because we think marriage equality is a great idea, for crissakes.

18. if he doesn't believe it he's out of a job

so I am sure he believes {wink, wink}

[Politicalboi]

4. Who cares what a bunch of pedophiles say

And the people who support them by showing up EVERY Sunday to prove it. We shouldn't even print what these barbarians say. Religion is a farce. It's their way of getting money by fooling and scaring the people. Religion is so 18th Century.

[MNBrewer]

10. What does that celebate bastard know about the value of "the family" as it's defined by his

cult. He doesn't have one of those amazing, God-defined things. What the FUCK does he know? Damn him and his Roman Catholicism.

[shenmue]

11. Yeah, because people being happy together is bad!

Oh, wait, it's sacred!

But only some people are sacred.

[MineralMan]

13. Ah, more "wisdom" from the RCC.

Apparently the Peter Principle failed in this one's case. He rose to a level far beyond his capabilities. Time to resign, John. Time to resign and live the contemplative life somewhere. You won't be missed here in Minnesota if you do.
