The Pope went to Spain and blasted same-sex marriage. Funny he didn't have anything to say about same-sex priests (or pedophile priests).
Seriously, many of the people who are against same-sex marriage say they don't have anything against gays, it's just that the institution of marriage is "sacred." But often it is the only way for people to get insurance, to inherit, to get tax breaks that others can get, and obtain many other benefits that others see as a basic right. To deny these economic and political benefits to an entire class of people is nothing short of bigotry.
And it is certainly not compatible with the Catholic Church's lip service to tolerance.
