or at least the Queensland Government says so.
please sign this petition started by Catholic priest Paul Kelly to close this ridiculous and offensive legal loophole. it only has 61 signatures out of 100 but i would dearly love to blow this priest away for all his effort to speak out about this, despite the position it may put him in with the Diocese and his parish.
he explains his position here and i think that a massive show of support for this might even make a change within the Church. maybe not a big one, but it could encourage similarly minded but less brave priests to show their support.
grass roots guys, one step at a time. i really hope this makes it to the world stage so the pressure cannot be ignored, because this law is archaic and damaging in the most heinous of ways.
This is just ridiculous.
