Archbishop Michael Neary:
“Are we going to be the first generation in human history to say that mothers and fathers don’t matter any more in the upbringing of children?”
Bishop Leo O’Reilly:
“I ask you to think of the wider consequences of this referendum passing. I have serious concerns about the blunt refusal to give any real guarantees regarding freedom of religion in relation to the referendum”
Bishop John Kirby:
“Marriage should be reserved for the unique and complementary relationship between a man and a woman from which the generation and upbringing of children is uniquely possible.”
Bishop Brendan Leahy:
“The forthcoming Referendum is a call to Christians to rediscover the deep foundations of marriage based on the union of a man and a woman who are created to complement each other and where possible, bring new life into the world.”
