Bishop Cordileone of Oakland the Force Behind Proposition 8

Here is one courageous bishop, a crusader for Catholic morals.  An Easy Bay newspaper has a “sneering” article aimed at publicizing the man for the work he has done in frustrating the same-sex “marriage” effort in California.  First he is praised for his work with the poor Mexican immigrants, then he is made to look like an obsessed fanatic bent on promoting Catholic moral teaching.  This obsessiveness disturbs those who would redefine marriage for their own depraved purposes.  And, talk about extreme, the man even uses the word “satanic” in describing the agenda of homosexual activists.  This, according to the anti-Christian culture, is scary language, dangerous rhetoric.  On the contrary, this is the language that should be echoed from every pulpit by real priests who want to imitate the real Christ, the one of history and scripture, not the fabricated one promoted by milquetoast liberals.

CWN reports: In a consistently sneering article, the East Bay Express— an Oakland-based alternative weekly newspaper– identifies Bishop Salvatore Cordileone as the principal force behind the passage of Proposition 8, in which the citizens of California defined marriage as the union of a man and a woman. Formerly the auxiliary bishop of San Diego, Bishop Cordileone was installed as Bishop of Oakland in May.  You can read access the Easy Bay Express article link here.
