A new study shows that Roman Catholics are more supportive of
homosexual special rights than are the general public and other
Christians.
The survey, conducted by the Public Religion Research Institute, addressed such topics as
legal recognition, same-gender "marriage," and suicide rates. Dr. Robert Jones,
the Institute's CEO, says the
study is fairly comprehensive.
"Nearly three-quarters of Catholics favor laws that would protect gay
and lesbian people against discrimination in the workplace," says Jones.
"Sixty-three percent of Catholics favor allowing gay and lesbian people to serve
openly in the military -- and six in 10 Catholics favor allowing gay and lesbian
couples to adopt children." ( Support for 'gay'
rights rising among Catholics)
(Billy's Thoughts>>> It looks like the Catholic Church has some work to do among it's own flock doesn't it? I don't believe anyone should be treated badly because of why they are but we already have laws on the books to guard against that. No group of people should be given special rights including Gay Americans.)
