“Well, I’m a Catholic, too,” Morgan responded. “I just think, unfortunately, we’re in a different era. We’re in a modern world.”

Puhlease!!! Should read: "Will, I'm a Catholic in Name Only .... "

[Tax-chick]

the elites are incapable of rational discourse

Bill is right.

And it's a pretty pathetic society that has these moral and mental gerbils for its "elites," too.

[Travis McGee]

Piers Morgan?

The lying hack who was run out of the UK after fabricating atrocity stories about British troops?

[Erik Latranyi]

If the Catholic Church really stands for decency, it would kick Piers Morgan out in a very public, very humiliating manner!

But the Catholic Church today is a eunich of its former self.

[ozzymandus]

I watched a couple of minutes of this “interview” (”interrogation” would be more accurate), and just wondered why even a wimp like Santorum would just sit there and be insulted by a slimy slug like Morgan.

[Red Badger]

“Well, I’m a Catholic, too,” Morgan responded. “I just think, unfortunately, we’re in a different era. We’re in a modern world.”

Yes, Piers, you are in a different era: The era of Sodom and Gomorrah.........

[bray]

He may be Catholic but he isn’t a Christian. He worships at the cult of liberalism.

[MNDude]

If they asked me a question about my religion, I think I would answer something like “I’ll have to get clarification from my Pastor Jeremiah Wright. Oh Wait! I forgot that’s not MY pastor...”

[loveliberty2]

Santorum handled himself very well. He rebutted the charge of bigotry by pointing out that the view expressed by Morgan was, itself, bigotry.

Whatever one thinks of him as a candidate in this election cycle, his is the kind of reasoned, principled response which must be made to the politically-correct censors of the so-called "progressive" movement.

[hinckley buzzard]

Piers Morgan is as much a Catholic as Osama binLaden was.

[hosepipe]

Morgan may be catholic but all catholics are not catholics..

SOme catholics are “roman” others are “greek”.. yet others are “russian”...
And there are other catholics that are not orthodox at all..

Being christian is pretty universal..

[Outlaw Woman]

This is how the radical nutjobs attack; it’s always with two main issues:
homosexuality (poor homosexuals, they just are so discriminated against)
Abortion-(what about RAPE, INCEST AND THE LIFE OF THE MOTHER)

The questions are always framed around those points: if you are against homos then you are for discrimination.

If you are against abortion, you are for women dying.

Conservatives need to quit being defensive about this! Stammering and stuttering and looking pathetic.

NO...we don’t discriminate. Rectal sex is unhealthy and violates the laws of nature AND God.
NO...we don’t want women to die (and this is where they need to whip out the facts about all the women that are dying through legalized abortion. there are TWO victims: the woman and the baby.

How tough is it to answer with the truth?? Stop saying “I think, I think” like it’s a debatable issue.

Geez

[Jim Scott]

Rick Santorum handled Piers Morgan's snide accusation perfectly. If you profess to be a Christian the Holy Bible is a sacred text - God's instruction manual, if you will - and homosexual behavior is condemned as a sin, as is adultery and fornication. To try and claim that 'times change'; as an excuse for condoning homosexual behavior is absurd and I'm glad Santorum called Morgan on that bit of nonsense. I know nothing of Piers Morgan's religious beliefs but his claim to being a Catholic should be followed with the disclaimer 'in name only'. The lefts attempt to characterize Christian's biblical-based opposition to 'gay marriage' as 'bigotry' is insidious and must be challenged every single time it is applied. In this instance, Rick Santorum did the right thing.

[Retired Greyhound]

I respect Santorum. He doesn’t back down from what he believes in.

He is against abortion in ALL cases, including rape, because, if the rapist won’t be punished by death, why should the child?

[Graewoulf]

Eat-Your-Piers is a Brit ! What else do your expect ?

Piers is rude, arrogant, - - - . Yeah! Piers could be the next replacement for Jay Carney, White House Spokesman.

[brytlea]

When the left doesn’t like what you have to say they call you a bigot, or a racist or something like that. They think it shuts off the debate and I suppose it used to. It is losing it’s punch tho. It probably makes them mad that many of us don’t care what they call us anymore.

[MSF BU]

Sodomy and Christianity are not compatible, despite what Mr. Morgan asserts.

[RowdyFFC]

I don’t know why the liberals have chosen to call themselves progressives when they’re really re-gressives. They’ve taken this country way back past the Viet Nam era of a divided country on race and moral issues...all the way back to Sodom and Gamorah with their depravity and almost all the way back to the 1860’s with their race-baiting and hatred.

[Netizen]

Santorum should have asked Morgan if Morgan’s views bordered on hypocrisy since we are told in both the Old and New Testament that homosexuality is an abomination.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor [a]effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10 nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10

Darby Translation (DARBY)

9Do ye not know that unrighteous [persons] shall not inherit [the] kingdom of God? Do not err: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor those who make women of themselves, nor who abuse themselves with men,

10nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor abusive persons, nor [the] rapacious, shall inherit [the] kingdom of God.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10

New International Version (NIV)

9 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men[a] 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

Footnotes:

1 Corinthians 6:9 The words men who have sex with men translate two Greek words that refer to the passive and active participants in homosexual acts.
