The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops is planning a major statement on marriage in November, preparing to issue new language about how the church views marriages between same-sex couples. Unfortunately, the new language is more of the same from the U.S. bishops -- hateful, tired, and representative of a theology that views people who are LGBT as less than:

Marriage equality harms both the intrinsic dignity of every human person and the common good of society. The legal recognition of unions of same-sex couples poses a multifaceted threat to the very fabric of society, striking at the source from which society and culture come and which they are meant to serve.
