Ex-priests support same-sex marriage in Washington

October 10, 2012

A group of 63 former Catholic priests has released a statement supporting a measure to legalize same-sex marriage in Washington.

“We are uneasy with the aggressive efforts of Catholic bishops to oppose R-74 [the measure that would grant legal recognition to same-sex unions],” the ex-priests say. Their public stand is intended to counteract the bishops’ public campaign to protect marriage.
