My point was that Musket's statement "we have every Catholic church in Scotland, and apparently many in England too, giving a sermon today saying that Gay relationships are an abomination" was not actually correct.

Nor does the pastoral letter actually say "that marriage can only be between man and woman as the aim of marriage is children".

It does refer to "the universally accepted definition of marriage as the union solely of a man and a woman." That is in fact how it has always been defined, as reflected in the terminology involved. A marriage is a contract between a husband and a wife. The legislation which has given formal recognition to analogous contracts between partners of the same sex has not changed that, and provides precisely the same rights and duties.

Football and cricket are both excellent games. Apples and oranges are both excellent fruit. It would of course be possible to attempt redefine the word "football" to cover both sports, and use "apple" to mean both fruits. But I am not sure that it would be a very good idea.
