Churches are losing their flocks all the time. As for Islamic overlords - yes dream on. As much as I dislike Gordon Brown and the Queen - the last time I looked they weren't islamic. Still the Queen is still the head of the Church of England - and I guess Gordon believes in God but not much of a God-botherer as Tony. And although we got our own homegrown nutters who bomb their own country - (as does the US - remember Timothy McVeigh?) the muslim community represents around 3 per cent of the population and I don't think they are all fundamentalis somehow. In Parliament there are only 4 muslim MPs of the 646 seats - which equals to 0.6 per cents of the seats - so they are actually underrepresented. . But of course some of you rightwingers believe that Obama is muslim. So who has the islamic overlord then?;)

It's not impossible to be to be Catholic and in a same-sex relationship. And it's not impossible to be a parent and in a same-sex relationship. Do all good catholics follow evry Bible command and the church teachings to the letter? I guess all catholics are virgins until they marry, never divorce, never use contraception and never have a wank. When are they going to get over sex?

Anyone who is a Catholic and voted against prop 8, is not a good practicing Catholic. Including this so called pastor. Same sex marriage, in fact homosexuality, is still against the church's teachings, and no matter how progressive this pastor thinks he is, and no matter how many of his parishoners voted to end the ban, it remains so. And, this "married" to a same sex partner guy, is going to a church that does not condone or allow his behavior. Raising a daughter in the church is comendable, but his acitons otherwise are in contradiction. During this election cycle, I read over and over again, the "vote your conscience" letters, from the Catholic church, regarding this issue and the pro-life issues with direct regards to Obama and Biden, and never once did the letters vary- no good Catholic was supposed to vote for gay marriage, or for the pro abortion candidates, president elect Obama and his VP.

"Just the conflict between being Catholic and being a parent, and being in a same-sex relationship" At least one of these things is impossible. Guess which one.
