The Cardinal calls same sex marriage supporters “hustlers”

Santo Domingo East.- Dominican Republic’s only Cardinal today called those who approve of same sex marriage “hustlers,” who consider that attitude as something normal.

Nicolas de Jesus Lopez Rodriguez said, “it’s not the same. It’s a lie. They are hustlers.”

In an energetic tone, the prelate railed those who favor legalizing gay marriages, affirming that same sex couples have the right to establish formal relations is not true and criticized the lawmakers who’ve voted for that type of relation.

Lopez Rodriguez, speaking during the inaugural of the Youth and Family Integral Training Center (CEFIJUFA) on the Samaná highway, rebuked those congresses which have approved those unions with the category of marriage.
