The persecution and repression of Christians has to start somewhere, and I guess San Fransisco is as logical a place as any.

Here’s something related to your post -

did you know that “Secular Humanism” is a recognized religion when it comes to the “free exercise” clause, but not (according to the 9th Circus) for the “establishment” clause?

Next time some Clymer tells you "he votes for the person, not the party," remind the stupid SOB of how many Jimmy Carter Jerk Judges are still screwing this country up. If you ever meet a Ross Perot supporter, tell him the same thing, followed by a swift kick to his Democrat enabling region.

It’s a little technical, but I thought I’d let you know.

He was an amazing man and has been called (by, I think, Pope Leo XIII) the greatest saint next to Mary, the mother of Jesus.

Nancy Pelosi’s district. Sounds about right. I’m sure she supports this resolution.

It is a violation of the free exercise clause, not the establishment clause, I think.

In her ruling, the judge claimed that the Church “provoked” the Board of Supervisors by voicing its moral teaching, and that the Board reacted “responsibly” by adopting its resolution, which called Catholic beliefs “defamatory,” “absolutely unacceptable,” “insensitive,” and “ignorant.”

It's a twofer. Going after freedoms of religion and speech at the same time.

The famous San Francsico Chronicle columnist Herb Caen (in the 50’ & 60’s) refered to S.F. as Baghdad by the Bay. One of his unforgettaable lines was “Why is S.F. like granola? It’s full of fruits, flakes, & nuts.”
