A couple of weeks ago the predominately Catholic nation
of Ireland voted overwhelmingly to legalize so-called same-sex marriage. Why? What happened in Ireland and does it
bode any warning for the United States? And finally, what was the role the
Church played in the Irish vote and what lessons can we learn from it? |
