Cardinal George says same-sex marriage is irrational
[SUNTIMES] You might expect the leader of the Catholic Church in Chicago to explain his opposition to same-sex marriage on the basis of his religious tenets, but Cardinal Francis George says that's secondary.

"This is first of all a rational issue before it's a faith issue," the cardinal told me in an interview this week. "That is, it's nature that tells us what marriage is, that in marriage, men and women aren't interchangeable."

"We didn't invent marriage. The church didn't invent marriage. The state didn't invent marriage. Nature gives us marriage. The Chinese are not Americans, and they're not Catholic. They know what marriage is. Where did that come from?" George asked rhetorically.
