Kerry was pretty clear his anger was not about what the Pope said Catholics should believe, but how they should vote.
In any case, what "morality" is Pope JP2 a subscriber to? He said gay relationships are "evil," which is a word he refused to use to describe Saddam Hussein.
If you think consensual sodomy is worse than systematic mass murder/rape/torture, you aren't a very "moral" person IMO.

The pretend Catholics will just have to make a decision soon. The voting on the judges is a test of the faith. Many are failing miserably. The men marrying men issue will further test them. They are not upset about votes or rights of men to marry men. They are angry that they are being tested in a very public way on their faith. Lukewarm and pretend Catholics have been outed. Kennedy's, Leahy ,
Pelosi,Daschle, Kerry and others will either walk away from the church or affirm their faith. It is very easy to carry a label of Catholic, Jew or whatever but it is much harder to live it. I believe you will see many angry politicians on both sides of the aisle.
