Ashley Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 I do not see why the Catholic Church is opposed to Gay Unions. I understand that "marriage" is between a man and a woman, but civil unions are something completely different. Why all this hate going around? It seems like things are being complicated more than they should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cappie Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 I suppose I am not qualified to give a definitive opinion as I live in Australia and so am not sure of the situation in the USA. My reading of the news suggests that it is not a question of civil unions to protect the civil rights of gay people but a question of marriage as it has been understood in Judeo Christian countries. I offer the following article from my Archbishop that appeared in a paper in Australia.[url="http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5744,9460399%5E7583,00.html"]The Australian[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
