I never claimed to be following Catholic doctrine...I'm only pointing out a perceived inconsitency.

And yes actually according to the catholic doctrine we must "endorse" every catholic belife. as I quoted above its our duty to make sure that the law of the land reflects our own moral laws.

I asked if every Catholic belief should be put into a constitutional Amendment. I'm pretty sure that most Catholics (and most other people of all religions) understand that there are better mechanisms for conveying religious morality then constitutional amendments.

Plain and simple. If your not a Catholic(?) then this isnt worth discussing ( most non-catholics view the churche's belief at precisly what kerry calls it
extreme right wing ideology) and if you are Catholic I neednt be arguing with you as there are better ways for you to pertain the Churchs stances and beliefs - from your pastor. In which case How can you be for same sex marriage if the pope is against it? I feel it would be a bit hypocritical for you to critisize me for saying the war is necessary when you believe Gays should marry.
I believe that sometimes police must use force to capture a criminal- that it is necessary for them to do their jobs- but that doesn't mean I support their using it ( i would rather they didnt - but if they deemed they had to- then so be it).
Its a grey area and im having trouble explaining myself- but as i stated about it would be hypocritical for you to critisize me on it when you believe gays should marry.

I'm only playing devil's advocate, trying to point out the aforementioned inconsistency. Obviously you aren't getting or don't agree with what I'm saying. I'm sure everyone else is as tired of this argument as I am, so I'll give it a rest.
