Following is a statement issued by Bishop Robert C. Morlino of Madison on the June 26 U.S. Supreme Court rulings on marriage:
“It is unclear exactly what the Supreme Court decisions will legally mean in our country. The fact remains that marriage means something, and this something is from God and cannot be changed by us, our laws, or by our courts. The truth of marriage is an absolute, with which we have no right to meddle. It is very clear what the Church’s response will be. We will tirelessly continue to promote the truth about marriage (and about all other matters) until the end of time. We have an obligation in charity to the entire world to do so. May God bless all people of good will who stand with us.”
