Cardinal Dolan Blames Bad Marketing for Church Seeming Antigay (UNFUCKING BELEVIEABLE!)

The Catholic Church merely has an image problem on LGBT equality, according to Cardinal Timothy Dolan.

"Well, I think maybe we've been outmarketed sometimes," he said on Meet the Press, according to a preview of the Sunday interview reported by the Associated Press. "We've been caricatured as being antigay."

Dolan was one of the most prominent figures to battle passage of marriage equality in 2011 in New York. He even posted a letter to his website comparing legalizing same-sex marriage to Communist regimes.

“Last time I consulted an atlas, it is clear we are living in New York, in the United States of America — not in China or North Korea,” he wrote at the time. “In those countries, government presumes daily to ‘redefine’ rights, relationships, values, and natural law. There, communiqués from the government can dictate the size of families, who lives and who dies, and what the very definition of ‘family’ and ‘marriage’ means.”

Since you apparently know nothing of the book you preach from, heres a verse from it that you and your ilk make happen everyday of the week. "Jesus wept".
