The Liberal MP in my riding staunchly opposed changing the definition of marriage. He stated in writing that the institution of marriage was foundational to human society and predated the nation state -- a pretty strong, foundational argument. In effect, he was saying that "marriage trumps Canada". Then he returned to Ottawa.
He wavered, then, bended, then succumbed.
Being Liberal in Ottawa is like an Alien-pod-people movie involving moral lobotomization. Followed by mutterings about the Charter Code and the high-priests of secular paganism that interpret its mystical meanings. Leftist-Liberalism is "in the air", or in the water, and it's apparently impossible to remain in the Liberal Party and keep any semblence of your own opinion or thinking.
A good example of this is Paul Martin. Paul Martin, in another context, another era, would no doubt be fighting against the very ideas he finds himself defending -- socially destructive ideas like same-sex marriage and swinging -- behaviours which he attempts to muster some enthusiasm for, but he really can't pull it off. "We simply cannot have two classes of Canadians?" Tell that to pederasts and polygamists, Paul. It's all about where you draw the line.
I do grieve, however, at the thought of the loss the Catholic Prime Minister and his MPs face because of their perfidy over marriage, and other acts of wickedness, such as cloaking support for the evil of abortion in the deceptive wrappings of "a woman's right to choose".
And, although I offer up tough criticism towards Liberals, I pray for them, in particular my MP and the Prime Minister. Otherwise decent men, they are caught up in an infectious ideological evil that is bigger than they are. However, there is no excuse, and, unless they repent, the eternal consequences of their actions are not something I care to contemplate.
Perhaps they should enjoy whatever perks come with power and privilege, while they can.
Long-term, the Bible says the meek shall inherit the earth. Elsewhere it makes clear that the faithful in Christ shall rule upon the earth. It is ironic that Catholic politicians are willing to forfeit this grand inheritance for a very transient and temporal power.

Catholic is as Catholic does - and they ain't doing. I too pray for them - it saddens me more than anything.
