Chicago's Cardinal George has publically compared a Gay-pride parade to a march by the Ku Klux Klan. Cardinal's comparison is nonsensical | National Catholic Reporter

I believe that the clerical elites in the Roman Catholic hierarchy live in a world of their own, but this whopper threatens to take the cake. Cardinal George's rational seems to be that the KKK is anti-Catholic (which it is) and that the Gay Pride Parade is also inherently anti-Catholic (which is bizarre).

People who disagree with the Catholic Church on personal sexual matters are not automatically anti-Catholic bigots on the order of the Klan. It will take some fast-talking for the Cardinal to get his credibility back up to zero.

This kind of stuff may be more widepsread than we think. I remember a bishop here in Mexico say a couple of years ago that all gays are going to go to hell. It's stuff you can't make up. Who knows how many more have these warped ideas, but are just not publicly saying them.

Quite like saying that since white isn't green, and black isn't green, then white is black.
