Gov.Cuomo defies Rule of Benedict on GAYS. The “Vatican Titanic Ship” hits iceberg in New York

New York Governor Cuomo has defied the rule of Benedict XVI - that GAYS and homosexuals should never be allowed to marry because they are “intrinsic evil people” – by finally officiating one of the first GAY wedding in New York on July 24, 2011. The GAY couple were members of his staff. Governor Cuomo was able to convince members of the legislation to vote on June 24, 2011, There, in a speech the public would never hear, he offered his most direct and impassioned case for allowing gays to wed. Gay couples, he said, wanted recognition from the state that they were no different than the lawmakers in the room. “Their love is worth the same as your love,” Mr. Cuomo said. “Their partnership is worth the same as your partnership. And they are equal in your eyes to you. That is the driving issue.” (see videos below)

The moral authority of the Holy See or the Vatican Titanic Ship is sinking as it is finally hit in the bull’s eye by the ‘official head of state’ of New York State, Governor Cuomo. Governor Cuomo’s success to legalize GAY marriage in New York is a testament that Rome no longer rules New York. Now, if only New York will also remove the statue of limitation for victims of pedophile priests so they can come out and sue their predator priests and bring them to justice in the court of law, New York will do a further service for humanity.

In this warm month of July we see 2 icebergs hit the Holy See Vatican Titanic Ship across the Atlantic: the iceberg of the GAY marriage in New York and the iceberg of the scathing declarations against the Vatican by the Prime Minister in Ireland, read our related article, Irish PM blasts ‘narcissism’ of Vatican.

John Paul II - and his partner Cardinal Ratzinger - proved that the Holy See and the papacy and the Voice of the Vatican cannot protect the most vulnerable, the children, hundreds of thousands of helpless and voiceless children who were harmed-for-life by the Priestly Sodomy of Biblical Proportions by the “holy priests” of the JP2 Army and therefore the Holy See has no moral voice whatsoever on other matters, read our related article, Heil Satanas JP2 Patron Saint of Pedophiles, Pederasts Rapists-Priests!

July 2011 will always be a historic month as two major icebergs hit the Vatican Titanic Ship. It is time the United Nations end the status of the Vatican as a “country”, read our related article Amnesty International names Vatican in 2011 report on human rights violations - it's time the UN end the Vatican status as a "secular" state http://pope-ratz.blogspot.com/2011/05/amnesty-international-names-vatican-in.html

What can the Holy See speak about to the United Nations? About Heaven and Hell? That is the afterlife and the United Nations have nothing to do with the afterlife but rather with this life here and now on Earth. So let religion be religion, out of the secular life of peoples and nations. Secularism is Benedict XVI’s number one enemy and therefore he should not be a member of the United Nations which has neither god nor religion.

The passing of the GAY marriage legislation was not without drama as the Archbishop of New York, Timothy Dolan, tried to twist arms - with his moral powers - but to no avail, read how the law was passed below. The Vatican Pied Piper George Weigel bashed Maureen Dowd and Anglican Bishop Spong mercilessly...

America, wake up and see the Victims in USA - Attackers - Responsible Leaders

Pearl Harbor - 3,000 victims - 170 planes - Admiral Yamamoto

WTC & 9/11 attacks - 3,000 victims - 19 Muslims - Osama bin Laden

JP2 Army - 15,736 victims - 6,000 pedophile priests - John Paul II & Benedict XVI & Opus Dei, the new Vatican Trinity

Opus Dei controlled the 27 years papacy of John Paul II and is therefore the foremost guilty party who aided and abetted and covered-up the John Paul II Pedophiles Rapists-Priests Army. Opus Dei wrote most of John Paul II’s books and writings and to ensure their perpetuity as “All things Catholic”, they want JP2 to be beatified and canonized now by Benedict XVI so as not to take any chances on other future popes. The FACE of Opus Dei is John Paul II and the PHANTOM Spirit of Opus Dei is their founder St. Josemaria Escriva, read our related article John Paul II, Patron of Pederasts and Opus Dei – analysis of Joaquin Navarro-Valls’ reasons for JP2 beatification at Opus Dei conference in Rome http://jp2m.blogspot.com/2011/04/john-paul-ii-patron-of-pederasts-and.html

The 15,736 victims is from the recent report of the US Catholic Bishops Conference harmed by almost 6,000 pedophile priests.

Couples wed on 1st day gay marriage is legal in NY

NEW YORK -- Hundreds of gay couples dressed in formal suits and striped trousers, gowns and T-shirts recited vows in emotion-choked voices and triumphantly hoisted their long-awaited marriage certificates on Sunday as New York became the sixth and largest state to recognize same-sex weddings.

Couples began saying "I do" at midnight from Niagara Falls to Long Island, though New York City became the sometimes raucous center of action by daybreak Sunday as couples waited on a sweltering day for the chance to exchange vows at the city clerk's office.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo reacts after same sex marriage was legalized after a vote in the Senate Chamber at the Capitol in Albany, N.Y., on Friday.

EXCERPT

Outgunned opponents


It was befuddling to gay-rights advocates: The Catholic Church, arguably the only institution with the authority and reach to derail same-sex marriage, seemed to shrink from the fight.

As the marriage bill hurtled toward a vote , the head of the church in New York, Archbishop Timothy M. Dolan, left town to lead a meeting of bishops in Seattle.

He did not travel to Albany or deliver a major speech in the final days of the session. And when he did issue a strongly worded critique of the legislation — he called it “immoral” and an “ominous threat” — it was over the phone to an Albany-area radio show.

Inside the Capitol, where a photograph of Mr. Cuomo shaking hands with Archbishop Dolan hangs in the governor’s private office, the low-key approach did not seem accidental. Mr. Cuomo had taken pains to blunt the church’s opposition.

When he learned that church leaders had objected to the language of the marriage legislation, he invited its lawyers to the Capitol to vent their frustration.

Mr. Cuomo even spoke to Archbishop Dolan about the push for same-sex marriage, emphasizing his respect and affection for the religious leader. An adviser described the governor’s message to Archbishop Dolan this way: “I have to do what I have to do. But your support over all is very important to me.”


By the time a Catholic bishop from Brooklyn traveled to Albany last week to tell undecided senators that passing same-sex marriage “is not in keeping with the will of their people,” it was clear the church had been outmaneuvered by the highly organized same-sex marriage coalition, with its sprawling field team and Wall Street donors.

“In many ways,” acknowledged Dennis Poust, of the New York State Catholic Conference, “we were outgunned. That is a lot to overcome.”

With the church largely out of the picture, the governor’s real worry was the simmering tension in the Senate Republican delegation. Its members met, for hours at a time, to debate the political and moral implications of allowing a vote.

But each time new arguments arose. Some questioned whether homosexuality was genetic or chosen. Others suggested that the same-sex marriage legislation be scrapped in favor of a statewide referendum.

Mr. Cuomo invited the Republicans to visit him at the governor’s residence, a 40-room Victorian mansion overlooking the Hudson River, just a few blocks from the Capitol.

There, in a speech the public would never hear, he offered his most direct and impassioned case for allowing gays to wed. Gay couples, he said, wanted recognition from the state that they were no different than the lawmakers in the room. “Their love is worth the same as your love,” Mr. Cuomo said. “Their partnership is worth the same as your partnership. And they are equal in your eyes to you. That is the driving issue.”

In the late hours of Friday night, 33 members of the State Senate agreed with him.
