[CS-FSLUG] City attacks Catholic ChurchEd Hurst ehurst at asisaid.comFri Apr 7 09:03:31 EDT 2006
I'm guessing most on the list are not Catholic. Still, we overlap on
such a broad range of things, you'd have to worry when a city government
openly attacks Catholics for doing the same things we all would likely do.

------------ excerpt ------------
In the March 21 measure, the city's board condemned Catholic moral
teaching on homosexuality and urged the archbishop of San Francisco and
Catholic Charities of San Francisco to defy church directives
prohibiting homosexual adoptions.
The resolution alludes to the Vatican as a foreign country meddling in
the affairs of the city and describes the church's moral teaching
and beliefs as "insulting to all San Franciscans," "hateful," "insulting
and callous," "defamatory," "absolutely unacceptable," "insensitive and
ignorant."
-------------- end -------------
Of course, the Catholics are hitting back with a lawsuit. While I'm
hardly surprised this happened in some place like San Francisco, what's
to stop other cities attacking *your* church?

The Danger of PeacemakerBy Timothy R. ButlerHere is a story. The leaders of a church have a personal agenda against someone and want to quiet him, exact revenge or what have you. They not only come at him within their church, they continue by following him outside of that church to any other church he seeks refuge at and any place he works, making a wreck of his life in the process. That is the sort of thing that only happened in the past, in dusty tales of witch-hunts in Salem or the Inquisition in Spain, right? Wrong: it is happening today, perhaps at a seemingly normal church near you. |
