CWN Editor's Note: Archbishop Wolfgang Haas of Liechtenstein has announced that he will not celebrate Mass for the opening of parliament, as usual, because of the body’s approval of legislation giving legal recognition to same-sex marriage.
The archbishop explained that “such a liturgical celebration no longer makes sense in view of the parliamentary behavior of the vast majority... in a matter concerning Christian ethics.” He warned that the approval of legislation allowing “marriage for all” will lead to a further breakdown on moral standards, pointing to the experiences of other nations “where gender ideology and LGBT propaganda reaches into the schools.”
