In the summer of 2003, Kerry responded to Vatican efforts to oppose gay marriage by stating, "I believe in the Church and I care about it enormously, but I think that it's important to not have the Church instructing politicians. That is an inappropriate crossing of the line in America."

John Kerry could have added, "The Church should not be instructing politicians. It should stick to its true role in my campaign, that of providing backgrounds for my photo ops. It is very disheartening for me to learn that there are those in the Catholic church who would expect me actually to endorse or live some of the tenets of the faith. When will they understand that this is an inappropriate crossing of the line? My only "faith" is me, and my only religious exercise is trolling for votes...."
