Forget What I Said Earlier Today, The Catholic Church is Very Awesome

via WaPo:
The Catholic Archdiocese of Washington said Wednesday that it will be unable to continue the social service programs it runs for the District if the city doesn't change a proposed same-sex marriage law, a threat that could affect tens of thousands of people the church helps with adoption, homelessness and health care.

NOW who are they punishing? Why not go on a hunger strike instead? Assuming no gays have been benefitting from their social services...

the church can provide or NOT provide whatever services it wishes. but youre saying that you're okay with them making ultimatums with actual laws? youre okay with it playing that role in government?

special interest groups, including the RCC have been pressuring government for years.
