The hierarchy of the Catholic Church is hopeless out of touch on this issue. The fact that almost 20% of the board members (all devout Catholics) resigned over this speaks to that very much. Heavily Catholic Spain legalizing gay marriage despite the warnings and threats from the church speaks to it as well. The average catholic these days is not right wing, but the church hierarchy is slow to change and adapt.
