Update: Author believes California bishops' response to "gay marriage" was "tepid"

I said, she said:

But the response from some Catholics so far has been tepid. Take the following statement released by the California Catholic Conference.

{she quotes it, then comments:}

“Maintain support” for traditional marriage? Catholic support requires more episcopal muscle than the release of a mild statement. Because the Church is "the universal sacrament of salvation" (Lumen Gentium), our shepherds should be mobilizing Catholics to fight back. Every Catholic priest, religious, businessman, teacher, doctor, banker, grocer, landlord, professor, and college student should be sent out with a mandate to fight for marriage.

Again, maybe a topic like "gay marriage" deserves a press release longer than one page.
