Assuming that these are the only people that made a large stink about it, that means that roughly
.00000084% of the Catholics in the world took enough offense from the church's stance on gay marriage to react. I don't think their reaction means anything. And since with roughly 1.2 Billion followers, you can't be that out of touch with what your followers believe. Plus, I don't think there's anything that indicates that the church is suffering a slow death, they've increased their numbers almost 12% in the last ten years, which is slightly above what population growth is. I'm not defending the church, but while this show of opinion might make those members feel good, I don't think it means anything. |
