CNN Asks Catholic Bishop 'Why Not Get on Board' and Support Gay Marriage

CNN's Kyra Phillips asked a Catholic bishop on Thursday "why not get on board" with dissenting Catholics who favor gay marriage. Given CNN's past support for LGBT causes, they clearly would not question the motives of a religious minister favoring gay marriage.

In fact, in 2010 Phillips fawned over a Christian pastor who publicly began accepting the lifestyle of gays and lesbians
Phillips had cited a statistic saying 43 percent of American Catholics favor gay marriage. "So, Bishop, times are changing. Views are changing. You're changing your tactics even," Phillips said. "So, why not get on board with the 43 percent of Catholics?"

"Well their thinking is outside the realm of Catholic teaching for 2,000 years," Bishop Malone responded.

Phillips' interview with Bishop Richard Malone of the Diocese of Portland, Maine, was over the Catholic Church's new tactic concerning the state's referendum vote in November asking voters to approve same-sex marriage.

    And the Pope is against it too.

    So whats the problem? On one hand, its a soft ball question that gives the bishop a chance to knock it out the park. On the other hand, it keeps the segment fairly light for entertainment purposes. Oh I forgot, this is the crowd that thought "So Gov. Palin, what books do you read?" was gotcha journalism.

    If you're not getting flak, you're not over the target.

    Why not recognize that sodomy is a behavior. People who engage in sodomy do not have an identity problem. They have a behavioral problem.
