Catholic Cardinal: Gay Marriage is the same as Slavery
« on: March 06, 2012, 12:30:06 am »
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/9122961/Gay-marriage-is-like-slavery-Catholic-leader-says.html

Essentially, the RCC Cardinal in Britain argues that gay marriage would be leading once again to the downfall of civilization. What's more, he also argues that it would be like legalizing slavery.

Now, anyone care to tell me how that's supposed to work? Because I haven't been able to figure that out myself.

How? Seriously how is gay marriage in any way similar to slavery?

Did he just throw darts at a list of "bad things" and randomly chose one to connect to gay marriage?

"Hmm Gay marriage is the same as Hitler... Nah, Godwin...  Gay marriage is the same as Dentists, nope doesn't make sense... Gay marriage is the same as Contraception, hmm this one might do, Gay marriage is the same as slavery, oooh looks like we got a winner!"

Oh...Keith O'Brien. Trust me, this is tame by his standards. I thought his predecessor Tam Winning was bad, but O'Brien is even worse.

So you admit that your God has no problem with same sex marriage?

I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

Is it me or are fundies getting more and more desperate to rationalize opposition to something that causes next to no inconvenience in their personal lives? Like say, oh, making irrational, non-sequitur comparisons?

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Corinthians 13: 4-7

But god's totally ok with slavery. Maybe he's trying to subtley say he supports gay marriage, but that's being really optomistic.

...This reminds me of one of the anti-abortion propaganda papers I got in CCD.

It went on and on about how towards the fall of Rome, people started killing unwanted babies by exposure "because Rome had degenerated morally!!" and implied that this was one of the big reasons why Rome fell.

In other words, all that stuff historians have known for centuries about how infanticide was practiced routinely from ancient Greece well into the Renaissance didn't actually happen.  Also, somehow killing a deformed baby == inviting Alaric himself, personally, into your home to burn it and take all your valuables.

Soo, first the Catholic church in this country threaten to close all their orphanages in response to not being allowed to discriminate against same sex couples, now this.

and here I thought the UK was mostly free of this religious bigotry bullshit.

Danarth: For the most part it is, but yes, even in Britain, there's religious fuckwittery galore. Nice of them to keep digging themselves deeper.

It is fairly tame here compared to the States and some other places....the worst I have ever gotten in Hull is bothered by some Mormons at 8pm while waiting for a bus, and at one point, I had a Jack Chick tract through my door.
