“Someone called my attention the other day to the fact that the Feast of Charles Lwanga and his companions,the Young martyrs of Uganda—was the day that Illinois declared same-sex marriage legal.

Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio has also prohibited the governor or any legislator who voted for the bill to appear at any parish or school function in the diocese. “The above request is intended as a protest of the corrupt political process in New York State,”the bishop said on his website. “More than half of all New Yorkers oppose this legislation. Yet,the governor and the state legislature have demonized people of faith,whether they be Muslims,Jews,or Christians,and identified them as bigots and prejudiced,and voted in favor of same-sex ‘marriage.’It is mystifying that this bill would be passed on the last day of an extended session under the cover of darkness.” Read Bishop DiMarzio’s complete statement.
