Frank…. I don’t believe that a second. Afterall the stated position of the Catholic Church is that homosexual conduct should be decriminalized.

Lynn David,

The from the CDF defining the phrase “unjust discrimination” is a position paper written for Cardinal Ratzinger on how to JUSTIFY various forms of discrimination against homosexuals. In this context, “every sign of unjust discrimination towards homosexual persons should be avoided” pretty much means: “When you beat them, make sure you don’t leave visible marks.”

So conservative Anglicans are supporting this pogrom. This would seem to be a public relations disaster for them.

Cultural and religious underpinnings:

Explicitly condemning and criminalizing Same Sex behavior may be a means of unifying a country equally split between Sunni Muslims and Christians…

Fundamentalists on both sides would agree.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

I think this is another reason this legislation will pass.

(forgive me if someone has already made this point elsewhere).
