More verbal diarrhea from the New York archbishop this time.

What intrigues me the most is the fact that certain Catholics believe their church some how owns the right to Marriage. As if it is some sacred copy right to which no one can infringe upon. Reality check: we have separation of church and state for a reason. Marriage is first of all a legal union recognized by the state, to which religious ceremonies take the very back seat.
My favorite rhetorical argument the right wing loves to use in any forum is "If gays are allowed to marry then where do you draw the line? People will start marrying their relatives, pets, and even start practicing legal polygamy!"... Well the right wing along with the Catholic Church seems to love drawing lines every which way as to what you can and cannot do. They have been doing so throughout history, so why not give the left a turn?
