A Public Confession by a Gay Catholic

"The confessional conversation I imagined went something like this: "Archbishop, you said in your recent '60 Minutes' interview that marriage is 'one man, one woman, forever.' If marriage needs to be defended from modern adaptations, what is the church doing to outlaw civil divorce and remarriage? Where is the political mobilization to prevent avowed adulterers like Hugh Hefner and Charlie Sheen, who flout notions of marital fidelity, from obtaining civil marriage licenses? How vigorously is the church calling for constitutional amendments and voter referenda to confirm, or deny, these modern versions to an institution once considered irrevocable, eternal and exclusive?"" writes John Mattras here.
