[CS-FSLUG] City attacks Catholic Church

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?
