Say "Changing the definition of marriage in the long run will seriously harm family life." BY LifeSiteNews.com BOSTON, December 1, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) - In a powerful statement which was to be read at all masses in the state of Massachusetts last Sunday, the state’s Catholic bishops said that the ruling of the “Supreme Judicial Court which radically redefines marriage is a national tragedy.”  The bishops warned further that “The misguided decision has also served to promote divisions in society by villainizing as bigotry the legitimate defense of thousands of years of tradition.”  In the letter the Bishops advocate a constitutional amendment which reaffirms marriage as the union between one man and one woman, urging Catholics to contact legislators to support such initiatives.  “The generations to come are the ones whose rights are being violated by the Court,” said the bishops.  “Changing the definition of marriage in the long run will seriously harm family life.”  See the full statement online at:  http://www.macathconf.org/03-Bishops%20Statement%20to%20Parishes%20after%20GoodridgeFINAL.pdf http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/massachusetts-bishops-condemn-homosexual-marriage-ruling-as-national-traged/
