I certainly hope the Archbishop doesn’t base his moral behavior on majority vote.

They write in the letter, "We respect freedom of religion and understand that you oppose civil marriage for same-sex couples. But the actions and rhetoric of NOM, and those of the event's speakers and co-sponsors, fundamentally contradict Christian belief in the fundamental human dignity of all people."

They are experts on "Christian belief," you see.

"Sadly, the actions of NOM and its invited speakers push us farther apart rather than bringing us together. We ask that you will reconsider your participation and join us in seeking to promote reconciliation rather than division and hatred."

The division and hatred comes from those who want divorce/remarry and same-sex marriage and can't force the Catholic Church to change God's moral absolutes.
So they become hateful themselves and call the Catholic Church divisive and hateful when it continues to UPHOLD the laws of God. Those folks sound like whining nine-year-olds.

Laws of God are MORAL ABSOLUTES, nothing less.

That’s some nerve, telling an archbishop what to do or not to do. They are way out of line and he should tell them so.

A letter to San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone signed by Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee, state and city officials and other faith, LGBT and community leaders, asks the archbishop to cancel an upcoming trip to an anti-LGBT event in Washington, D.C.

The California Queer pro-sodomy Nation delusionally really believes that they can now run the Catholic Church?

Why don't they pass a law and see where that goes!!

Insane perverts in the CA legislature. Just when we think it can't get any worse, we get this kind of reality check.
Am I the only one who remembers when, in the late 70's, all the deviant perverts whined and requested was for "a little tolerance?"

Who could have seen this coming?

Oh, horse droppings. If the average GLBT behaved with dignity, none of this would be an issue. Are pride parades dignified? Bathhouse orgies? Gender bending parodies of the opposite sex, are they dignified? What a load of toss.

Government officials warning the Archbishop not to attend. That’s a pretty huge brown- shirted move.

How is the rally “anti-gay”? It’s just supporting traditional Christian marriage, which has always been between one man and one woman, and is under legal attack now. On the other hand, gay “marriage,” which actually doesn’t exist, is legally privileged and is being imposed on everyone whether they like it - or even give a darn - or not.

“encouraging bigotry is unacceptable”

Disapproval of sodomy, and of sodomite play-pretend marriage, is not bigotry. Refusing to hire sodomites as school teachers is not bigotry; refusing to rent to sodomites is not bigotry; refusing to do business with sodomites is not bigotry; encouraging sodomites to seek treatment for same-sex attraction disorder is not bigotry, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

We have to reclaim the language. As long as they frame the debate, they can make good look like evil and vice versa.

They should change the name from San Francisco to New Sodom. Then walk away and don’t turn back.
