Subject: RE: BS: Why do Americans hate one other so much?
Q: The "right wants marriage to mean heterosexual marriage." So does the Catholic hierarchy. So do many in the Islamic hierarchies. And so do many rank and file members. Are they all 'righties?

I was talking about politics. That some religious group has the same beliefs or goals as the religious right in this country seems to me completely irrelevant. I was talking about one specific group. They are collectively called the "Religious Right" and have been for 30 years. I noted one of their goals/desires. I don't see what the Catholic Church has to do with it, or whether the word "right" should apply to them or not. I'm not saying the group is right because they believe such-and-such about marriage. I'm saying the group is right AND they believe such-and-such about marriage. Clear now?
