The move comes only a day after Governor Paterson sat in the front row at Archbishop Dolan’s installation mass. In his sermon, Dolan said that “not only the Resurrection but the cross , the dying, of Christ goes on . . . as the Church is ridiculed for her teaching on the sanctity of marriage.”
At a press conference yesterday, Paterson said that “Anyone that has ever experienced degradation or intolerance would understand the solemn duty and how important it actually is. This is a civil rights issue. Civil rights don’t wait for the right time.”
Once again, remember Maggie Gallagher: We’re seeing “the redefinition of traditional religious faiths as the moral and legal equivalent of racists. The proposition on the table right now is that our faith itself is a form of bigotry.”
