Lord Carey is the former Archbishop
of Canterbury. He recently complained about the fact that he was called a bigot
by supporters of gay marriage. In response, he compared this to what happened
to the Jews in Nazi Germany. He said that what happened to the Jews in Nazi
Germany started with people calling Jews names like this (‘bigots’) and it
progressed on a full holocaust. Lord
Carey said, “same sex relationships are not the same as heterosexual
relationships and should not be put on the same level”. I have just read an
extraordinarily powerful and graphic article by Martin Robbins and I would urge
you to read this article. It is headed, “Gay Marriage ‘Nazis’ and the disgrace of Lord Carey”. You can
access it at www.mjrobbins.net We are Irish so it won’t persuade you to
protest in the streets about the same sex marriage question, but it might fire
you up.
I hope you also heard Mary McAleese’s
comments on RTE on Tuesday night on the subject of same sex marriage. She gave
a very passionate and logical argument in favour of same sex marriage. Watch it
on your iPlayer. Someone should nominate her for President.
