text: People who enter into same-sex "marriage" are publicly proclaiming that they do not share the Catholic Faith. If such people insist that they are practicing Catholics, then they are insisting that they, and not the Catholic Church, exercise the authority to define the content of the Catholic Faith.
  
  For such people to hurl invective, or to gripe about not being allowed to receive Communion or a Catholic funeral from clerics is utterly irrational. Since they claim to exercise the functions of the Magisterium of the Church, they should be consistent and simply give themselves communion and give themselves the kind of funerals they wish.
