This is just another attack on Catholics. The “church” in question is the VERY LIBERAL United Church of Christ; Catholic Church authorities merely asked to see the document, because the Church is fearing prosecution under hate speech laws because of its opposition to gay marriage.

Until Pelosi and Kerry are refused communion I have to believe there is a powerful component of the Catholic church which supports their ideology.

This is just another attack on Catholics.

I had the Jesuits for high school. My wife, who is from a completely different part of the county than I am, had the Ursulines and my sister the Sisters of Mercy. My mother-in-law is a 30-year veteran teacher within her diocese's parochial school system.

While some specific Catholic parishes and dioceses are definitely conservative, our experiences are with a Catholic Church that is very much into Social Justice, Liberation Theology and (with the exception of abortion) has a decidedly Liberal Ideology.
