Catholic Church Threatens To Stop Feeding Homeless Over Gay Marriage

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.

I think I'm going to go find a nice unpopulated planet to live on. Anyone wanna come with?

Yep, count me in.

Unbelieveable. Except sadly not.

As Den said earlier, how positively Christian of them.

Jesus CHRIST. I... am having trouble finishing a sentence to convey my disgust over the tinyminded bickering that is and continues to be organised religion. UGH.

Yeah, it'd be nice if it WERE unbelievable. :(

Totally.

And it's crap like this that makes me wish organized religion could be wiped off the map.

Exactly.

Yeah, words kind of failed me, too.

Organized religion gives truly good people a bad name.

What the flying fuck?
Maybe someone should tell them to actually read the New Testament sometime? Because as far asd I remember that behaviour really doesn't agree with what's in there. (Not that I would be ok with this behaviour if it'd be, but theydon't play by their own book!)

There are not enough words to express how glad I am that I no longer consider myself Catholic. I am absolutely repulsed by this.

I... tried typing something here, but I'm a loss for words. I don't even know.

Your planet, can I come too? D:

This is why I don't believe in religion.

The church is supposed to help the needy, not hold their care hostage in order to get their demands met. WTF is that? That is NOT Christianity, that is NOT what Christ stood for, what it is is a new form of a disgusting low.

Make people who are already suffering suffer even more over a marriage of people they will likely never meet, know, or care about? Fucking assholes.
