South Australian Catholic Bishop Greg O’Kelly has spoken out in a letter to his parishioners about his stance against same-sex marriage.
“The nature of a marriage between two same-sex people and the marriage between a man and a woman open to life … are two very different things. A pear is not an apple, no matter what you say, even if you start to redefine the term from its traditional one, it doesn’t alter the reality.”
He also issued a warning that children of same-sex marriages will eventually be the next ‘Stolen Generation’:
“Can’t you imagine a situation that when there’s a falling-out between a child and a parent, as can happen, that’ll be one of the lines they use?” he wrote.“You deliberately intervened so that I would not have a father present in my upbringing, or not have a mother present in my upbringing. And that was a deliberate intervention by you, it wasn’t an accident, it wasn’t illness or anything like that.”
