Your opinion may well be of consequence, but not to me personally to respond to.

- a guesstimate beyond anything reasonable that happens to support your position

- citation of a pundit whose area of "expertise" is in a wholly different area

- rejection of the natural law and the Church's teaching

- advocacy for basing teaching on "peoples' lives" instead

- suggestion that unless the "church institution" adopts your viewpoint, it is "dead, clinging to the skeleton of a past glory while ignoring the needs of presently living people"

- a zany assessment of Anglicans, including a "Tiber" reference

Given that this is the blog of the National Catholic Reporter, what do you think the odds are I have not read this entire content once before? Every day? Hundreds of times?

But don't let that discourage you from doing high fives with similar-minded commenters.

My opinion should be of no consequence to you.
