Marriage: A Loon Speaks (Though He Didn't Actually)

In his first official day as leader of the Church of England, the Rt Rev Justin Welby is expected to say that marriage should remain “between a man and a woman”.
As MPs prepare for the vote on gay marriage on Tuesday, Bishop Welby will give his first interviews after being officially confirmed in the post at a ceremony in St Paul’s Cathedral in London.
“If asked he will say that marriage is between a man and a woman, and always has been,” a source close to Bishop Welby said, adding that the Archbishop was expecting to be asked for his views and had prepared his response. 

The Daily Telegraph

This is in the Telegraph, so could be balls, especially as it's attributed to "a source" - a usual sign of a made-up quote.
Maybe the Archbishop thinks there are more pressing issues to speak out about - like war, poverty, hunger, and homelessness?
Or maybe he's a loon who believes a man can walk on water and then turn it into wine?
In which case we should deffo take him seriously.
