Antonio Salas, coordinator for the homosexual and transgender support group at Newman Holy Hall parish at the University of California, Berkeley, told the Mercury News he knew of “renegade priests” who have performed marriage ceremonies for same-sex couples.
"The greatest sin is to sin against your conscience,” said Salas. “With an informed conscience, you can dissent from the church's teaching.”
With an informed conscience, you can dissent from the church's teaching?
Not exactly! One may not dissent from the Church’s official teachings if the conditions are not in conformity with Scripture and Treadition and the Magisterium of the Church.
Just because my conscience tells me that it is right for same-sex couple to marry does not make this right and proper if the Magisterium of the Church has decreed otherwise.

God bless the so-called "renegade priests."
Jesus Christ was the Great Renegade of All Time.
