Three years ago, Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, then archbishop of Washington, gave Wolf Blitzer to understand that he was OK with same-sex civil unions (though he quickly issued a “clarification” making it clear that he did not actually support them). Are the Dolan-led New York bishops, in their notably mild statement against New York’s SSM bill, sending the same signal?
If there are injustices against those in relationships other than marriage, those injustices can certainly be reformed and corrected in a way other than by drastically redefining marriage.
I’s say so.
