Clegg tries to reassure churches over â€˜bigotsâ€™ gaffe

Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg tried to calm the storm caused by a statement released in his name calling gay marriage opponents â€œbigotsâ€.

He said he never intended to make the remarks, and said it was all an unfortunate mistake made by his officials.

He has written to the Church of England and the Roman Catholic Church, insisting he respects those who disagree with him over the redefinition of marriage.

The row began on Tuesday when Mr Cleggâ€™s office gave journalists the text of a speech to be delivered by the Deputy Prime Minister later that day. ...

In my opinion you lose more credibility when you try to cover up or deny what you said.

Come on, Clegg. You're a coward. You meant what you said. At least have the courage of your convictions to stand by your statement, even if it is wrong.

"The speech called opponents of gay marriage â€œbigotsâ€ and accused them of using the economic crisis as an excuse for delaying the redefinition of marriage."

A Liberal speaking to Liberals addressing the abomination with a mind which does not have the ability to comprehend the truth.

Clegg is an atheist politician and according to Psalm 14, 53 and Romans 1:22 he is a quote "fool."

As for "gay marriage"
"gay" is a word changed in meaning to provide a deception. A lie. Therefore a cover up.
"marriage" is the union of man and woman instituted by God not man or parliaments.

Therefore we have a fool and his lie trying to redefine what God alone can join together.

I agree with God, this guy must be a fool.
