A response to: Archbishop Addresses Marriage Amendment Aftermath
I am proud of the strong and respectful reaffirmation by San Francisco's Archbishop George Niederauer of the Catholic teaching that marriage is reserved exclusively to just a man and a woman. Yet he was pastorally sensitive and compassionate to the those who felt hurt by the position of the Catholic Church in California on Proposition 8. Still, he said, tolerance doesn't mean we have to agree on strongly held convictions. It means that we agree to disagree without becoming disagreeable.
