Butcher, Baker, Candlestickmaker, but Catholics Need Not Apply

Well, it is becoming increasingly clear that Catholics, who are faithful in England and in some states America where SSM is allowed, will be forbidden some jobs. Those with good consciences will not be able to support SSM in any way, such as this couple, who refused to make a cake.


A Catholic with a conscience could not provide cakes, flowers, hotel rooms, rental cars, or such, to homosexuals or lesbians who think they are getting married, which they are not, as marriage is between a man and a woman.

Remember, a few days ago, I posted a link to ministers in England who said many jobs would be closed Christians once SSM is a reality. 



Already in England, bed and breakfast owners, even if the b an bs are in their own homes, cannot refuse homosexual or gay couples. And, this is the case in Hawaii as well.



My concern is that so many Catholics will compromise, as they did in the first wave of the Protestant Revolt under Henry VIII. If all Catholics had stayed firm, England would still be Catholic today. He wanted adultery to be legalized. Now, we have people who have pushed yet another aberration of marriage.

Venerable Fulton J. Sheen reminds us that tolerance is not in the list of virtues.
