Rick Warren goes on national TV and lies through his teeth; via Americablog, here's Warren, speaking to Larry King:

I was asked a question that made it sound like I equated gay marriage with pedophilia or incest, which I absolutely do not believe.

Oh, okay. He was misunderstood ... it just sounded like he equated it with pedophilia and incest:

Steven Waldman: One controversial moment for you in the last election was your support for Proposition 8 in California. [...] Rick Warren: Not a problem to me. But the issue to me is, I’m not opposed to that as much as I’m opposed to the redefinition of a 5,000-year definition of marriage. I’m opposed to having a brother and sister be together and call that marriage. I’m opposed to an older guy marrying a child and calling that a marriage. I’m opposed to one guy having multiple wives and calling that marriage. Steven Waldman: Do you think, though, that they are equivalent to having gays getting married? Rick Warren: Oh I do.

Don't you hate it when people try to put words in your mouth?

Warren also claimed that:

I never once went to a meeting, I never once issued a statement, I never once even gave an endorsement in the two years Prop 8 was going. The week before the vote, somebody in my church said, 'Pastor Rick, what do you think about this?' And I sent a note to my own members that I actually believe that marriage is really should be defined, that definition should be say between a man and a woman, and then all of a sudden out of it they made me something that I really wasn't.

Apparently some people "equated" this public service announcement with a statement and an endorsement:
