What does God have to say about religious leaders who call good evil and evil good?

Transcript

 

[Gary Petty] In a recent edition of NBC's Meet the Press, New York's Cardinal Dolan was asked about a situation involving a nationally known athlete who had come out, claiming that he was gay. Cardinal Dolan's response was this: "The same Bible that tells us – that teaches us well about the virtues of chastity and the virtue of fidelity in marriage, also tells us not to judge people, so I would say, 'bravo'."

Well, Cardinal Dolan, you can't have it both ways. You see, the opposite of virtue is vice. The opposite of right is wrong. The opposite of good is evil. Mr. Dolan, what I would suggest you do is read your Bible more – especially the passages that talk about how God is going to judge religious leaders who claim good is evil and evil is good (Isaiah 5:20).
