To celebrate Good Friday the Star-Ledger editorializes religion equals bigotry

Remember when I said the purpose of same-sex "marriage" is to destroy Christianity? Today, on the holiest day of the Christian calendar, here's the Star-Ledger's Tom Moran waxing philosophical about the day when all those religios bigots will give up on opposing same-sex "marriage."

His message is clear: religion equals bigotry. If you love God, you hate homosexuals.

It's an easy way to frame the debate. Nevermind that it's completely inaccurate. By Any Means Necessary, dontcha know. By any means necessary they'll impose their secularized worldview on everyone. The denizens of diversity can't wait until conformity is universal.

And it's working. No one around here wants to hear about Catholic doctrine and Canon Law and our Popes' commitment to universal human rights. Not even the catholics. Especially not the catholics. (Yes, with a small-c.) They say Holy Mother Church is wrong. As if the annointed successors to Saint Peter could be anything but the living embodiment of the Word of God.

Therein was the heresy of Lutheranism. And his ship already sailed.

In Tom Moran's world there is no such thing as sin. (Except owning a gun. Owning a gun is his world's Original Sin.) "How can you be against love?", I am asked. When I reply that I am against "sin," it just doesn't compute.

God has proscribed certain actions. Of that there is no doubt. There is also no doubt that we are weak, fallible, and imperfect. We will sin. It's how we face our failings which elevates us above the animals and makes us worthy to be cast in the image and likeness of God.

Repent! For the hour is at hand.

Folks like Moran who cannot comprehend having restrictions placed on our behavior by Almighty God have no problem with any number of limitations and regulations promulgated by Man. No smoking. No Big Gulps. Wear a seat belt. Don't eat cookies in school. Throw away that foie gras. Thou Shalt Not Burn Fossil Fuels. The list goes on.

Those are man's laws. And people welcome more and more of them, all in the interest of "helping" or "protecting" us. But there's already an instruction manual for the human race — God's Holy Scripture. And there are laws derived from it by God's Holy Church.

It's really a shame that petty tyrants like Mike Bloomberg and Barack Obama command more respect in our society than The Risen Christ. And events have now conspired to place Justice Anthony Kennedy as the supreme arbiter of our fates. Alas we need only look to Golgotha to see the one true Son of Justice, for surely, God is the measure of all things.
