    Full-court press for gay "Marriage"; Bishops call for Catholic response

    Connecticut has ruled gay "Marriage" is legal.

    First, a cluster of news links....

    [The NYT: "Gay Marriage Is Ruled Legal in Connecticut" Commentary: "Using Biology, Not Religion, to Argue Against Same-Sex Marriage"Related, WSJ: "First Graders Taken to San Francisco City Hall for Gay Wedding" Local: "State Supreme Court Legalizes Same-Sex Marriage"]

    The Connecticut Catholic Conference, has condemned the decision and "calls for a “Yes” vote on a Constitutional Convention" More information on that campaign here.

    Let me make it doubly clear - here is what the Catholic Conference of Connecticut has said:
    "... we will be calling on the Catholic people of our state to vote “Yes” for a Constitutional Convention and the right of referendum on Election Day." (source.)

    That's pretty clear.

    Meanwhile, on the other coast.... http://www.protectmarriage.com/ & TFP's action blog.
    Moreover, some of the California bishops are active. From an AmP reader:

    "There is a new website up (http://www.marriagematterstokids.org/) that has a series of videos on the meaning of marriage. The site is a Catholic response to the situation of marriage in California and what the upcoming election might mean.

    There are extended (10-20 minutes) interviews with Bishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Diego, Archbishop George Niederauer of San Francisco, and Bishop Allen Vigneron of Oakland.

    The home page has a 13 minute video with Bishops, Priests, a family counselor, a constitutional lawyer and ordinary people discussing marriage and what it means."

    Form your conscience - vote Catholic this November!
