I wondered the same myself, I mean it's not the first time people have engineered a story just for effect, like those animal rights groups and the elephant the other week.

Catholics - 8% of the UK population (five million), of which 20% (1 million) regularly attend mass.
So, that means 1 million practicing Catholics, and 1.2 million practicing (or they might be quite good at it, so don't need to practice) gays (2% of the population, according to your figures*).
Who's the minority?
*(and according to research quoted in the Guardian, 3.6 million gay people in the UK )
