Connecticut Lawmakers Attack Catholicism at Gay ‘Marriage’ Hearing
April 5th, 2007 by Peter
That’s the title of an item on the popular LifeSite News regarding last week’s hearing. Other websites are linking to Lifesite’s article and FIC is being inundated with e-mail messages supporting Brian. An excerpt from Lifesite:
Representative Michael Lawlor, a proponent of homosexual ‘marriage’ repeatedly asserted falsely that Brown, a Catholic, believed homosexual people were intrinsically evil. Lawlor, joined by Senator Edwin Gomes continued this line of attack even after Brown repeatedly insisted that he agreed with the Catholic Church’s position that homosexual acts, and not homosexual persons are intrinsically evil.
Brown presented an admirable defense of his faith and his stand in favour of the traditional family based on rational argument. Nonetheless, the repeated and discourteous attacks by Lawlor and Gomes drew criticism from the Catholic League.
Lifesite links to the Air Maria video of the exchange and provides contact info for key lawmakers. In a related item, about 60% of respondents to a Courant reader poll said “no” to the same-sex “marriage” bill that was the subject of that hearing.
THAT WAS A VERY GOOD ARTICLE. THE CATHOLIC CHURCH DOES NOT CONDEMN HOMOSEXUALS JUST THE IMMORAL ACTIONS THAT THEY ENGAGE IN.
