As a practicing Catholic would you refuse to go to a gay wedding? The MIL's second husband is refusing to go to the marriage of his nephew because it's a same sex marriage. The MIL has told him that she is going, and he can stay at home. She is a practicing, mass every week Catholic. Her second husband at one time was studying to be a priest, but when it came time to take his vows backed out. He grew up poor in a Polish enclave of the West Side of Chicago, and despite fleeing the priesthood has remained active in the church. He goes to Africa to do missionary work twice a year for 2-3 weeks each trip. He serves at homeless shelter to the point of staying overnight sometimes. He's a fairly wealthy guy who gives a lot of money to causes of the Catholic Church.
CSB, I know, but I was a little shocked at his attitude after knowing him for 15 or so years. The marriage to the MIL is the second for the both of them, so, he will attend the marriage of someone who is divorced.
Catholic or not, would you pass up on attending a same sex marriage out of moral considerations?
