They seem to think that the community value of procreating the species is at stake. So they don't see themselves as bigotted, but instead as lone champions of a losing battle for reverence for life. So is this another case of competing individual vs. community values? How can the bishops reframe the question to see a value in legalizing non-procreative marriage?Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00135199120788030871noreply@blogger.com
