DC Catholic Church Does an UnChristian Thing

The mighty archdiocese of Washington DC has announced it will cease offering social services to over 70,000 DC residents (about 1/3 of which are homeless) if the DC government allows same sex marriage.

This is from the same group that has spend decades covering up same sex molestations of young boys by priests.  If priests can have same sex sex shouldn't it be okay for some to engange in same sex marriage?

Apparently not.

So if the big kid on the social services block can't get it's way, it's going to take its toys and go home, leaving 70,000 poor people hungry, homeless, sick and ill clothed.

This threat by the Catholic Curch is the most un-Christian thing they can do.


Doesn't the Bible say feed the hungry, clothe the poor and heal the sick?

I guess that part of the Bible isn't in the DC Catholic Diocese's version. 

The Bible also says be compassionate - another tenan t of thei rfaitht eh DC Diocese is willing to toss out the window.

As this latest anti Christian move by the Catholic Church shows us once again, organized religion has little to do with folowing the preceipts of it's faith, it's about getting and keeping power and about forcing a particular belief system on everyone else no matter who it hurts in the process.
