From our parish newsletter:
"Let's not be naive, we're not talking about a simple political battle; this is a destructive pretension against the plan of God. We are not talking about a mere bill, but rather a machination of the Father of Lies that seeks to confuse and deceive the children of God."
(Archbishop Jorge Bergoglio --- now Pope Francis
“The family is threatened by growing efforts on the part of some to redefine the very institution of marriage. These realities are increasingly under attack from powerful forces which threaten to disfigure God’s plan for creation.”
Pope Francis supporting a February, 2015 referendum in Slovakia.
In this referendum, a majority of Slovakian voters pushed to • define marriage as a union of one man and one woman; • ban same-sex registered partnerships. • require that adoptive parents be married to provide a stable father-and-mother headed family for the adopted children; • establish that parents must be allowed to opt their children out from school classes dealing in sex education and euthanasia.
