Major U.S. city officially condemns Catholic Church
« on: July 16, 2008, 07:08:01 PM »
Instructs members to defy 'Holy Office of Inquisition'

A San Francisco city and county board resolution that officially labeled the Catholic church's moral teachings on homosexuality as "insulting to all San Franciscans," "hateful," "defamatory," "insensitive" and "ignorant" will be challenged tomorrow in court for violating the Constitution's prohibition of government hostility toward religion.

Resolution 168-08, passed unanimously by the City and County of San Francisco Board of Supervisors two years ago, also accused the Vatican of being a "foreign country" meddling with and attempting to "negatively influence (San Francisco's) existing and established customs."

It said of the church's teaching on homosexuality, "Such hateful and discriminatory rhetoric is both insulting and callous, and shows a level of insensitivity and ignorance which has seldom been encountered by this Board of Supervisors."

There was another city, famous for its homosexuality...hmm.


On the corner of the Dead Sea, I believe. Had a twin, Gomorrah, I think.  :whatever:


The Catholic and U.S. Marine Corps. Two organizations not welcome in San Francisco.

Yeah. Good luck with that.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Dear San Francisco

If you don't like the teachings of the Catholic church, don't be Catholic.

If you don't like the rules of a certain golf club, don't join that club.

If you spend your time being mad every time somebody or some organization disagrees with you, you probably aren't going to have a very happy life, unless you like being mad.

Oh yeah, and by the way, St. Francis of Assisi was Catholic.  He didn't see eye to eye with the church on everything but he didn't try to stop the other orders within the church with which he disagreed, he started his own.  He didn't spend time whining and moaning, he set an example by living by example.  And it turned out there was room for him and the other orders.

Be well.

Sure seems that that's where a lot of them want to be.
