Under the bill, headed for a D.C. Council vote next month, religious organizations would not be required to perform or make space available for same-sex weddings. But they would have to obey city laws prohibiting discrimination against gay men and lesbians.
Can someone explain to me how the second sentence doesn't contradict the first?
it's a matter of public funding to a catholic suborganization that acts as the charity. No one expects catholics to let gays have weddings but they DO expect public money that funds a catholic charity to abide by the same employment requirements as anyone else.
Like I said... don't like the public standard then don't take the public money.
How do you even come up with this crap? You are worse than a tabloid sometimes.
Crap? What are you talking about? What did I say that's not true?
I am Conservative, I am Religious, I care about People, regardless of their income or sexual preference. I have no interest in making anyone miserable.There is enough misery here already.
The rest of your accusations against the Church I ask You to document the claims. Do You have Links?
And, the Church is well within the federal law if they want to discriminate whom they employ. City regs don't matter as the District's ultimate authority is the federal government (unlike other municipalities).Under the bill, headed for a D.C.

Gays are probably 3 to 5% of the population.

Way to try to slip in some disinformation tho!

You're right, it's even less:

If the RCC is SO bad.....why in the hell do Gays want their approval and acceptance so badly that they would *force themselves* on an unwilling RCC? I've never understood this "child molester" or "priest sex abuse" argument....
If someone/something rejects me (and/or offends me so badly), I steer clear--rather than trying to force them to change their ways and accept me.
What gives?? Can someone explain this ridiculous argument?
Because RCC priests allegedly abused children, the RCC should be forced to accept Gay employees and Gay Marriage?
Huh?
Catholics must lose their tax except status now!

How is gays havging the right to get married forcing anything on you? Do you even know any gays?
The Christian Conservatives are so worried about a very tiny percentage of the population. It has to be one of the most dumb things imaginable.
Just leave gays alone. If they want to "get married" and live in peace, turn the other cheek.
Better to concentrate on the "divorce" rate which hovers around 50%. The fact that conservatives will get married three or four times and then want to protect the "sanctity" of marriage is a hoot.

My advice is come up with a New Word, unique to what Your Union is, find agreement within Your Own Community, and move forward with that.
Why worry, they did not recognize the screaming arse ripped children either.Heck, even my Church doesn't recognize my marriage.

It's comments like that which make me prejudiced against Humans. There is hope yet.

So You are Declaring War on The Constitution?
Reduce Us further into third world status, Ass for brains. The more of the Founding Principles You Deny and defecate on, the more You will pay. Statist Piece of Shit.
