It all started when the Vatican issued a decree prohibiting Catholic adoption agencies from placing children with same-sex couples. The decree stated that placing children with gay couples "did violence to the children." The San Francisco Board of Supervisors issued a non-binding resolution critical of that decree, stating it contained language that was "hateful and discriminatory." It also asked the local arch-bishop to ignore the decree. In response, Catholic Charities of San Francisco stopped placing children for adoption with any families.
Enter the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights (what an oxymoron that is). They filed a lawsuit against the board, claiming their actions violated separation of church and state (another bile-producing moment). The lawsuit was thrown out by the Ninth Circuit Court.
But it doesn't end there. The lawyers for the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights have now publicly compared the Board of Supervisors to the Nazis. In a statement, they said "It is not a stretch to compare the San Francisco board's actions to that of the Nazi Germany policy of Gleichschaltung, vilifying Jews as an auxiliary to and laying the groundwork for more repressive policies, including the final solution of extermination."
Here's the punchline: in comparing the board to the Nazis, the group was critical of what, it called, "forced conformity of doctrine and elimination of opposition."
OK you fucking catholic hypocrites. First of all, you have no right to talk about separation of church and state, considering your considerable support for Prop H8. Not to mention your outright war against marriage equality in New England.
Apparently you've never read the quote from Jesus about getting the log out of your own eye before you try to get the speck out of your neighbor's eye.

I've yelled myself hoarse over the fucking catlicker church. Unfortunately that's the religion I was born into and raised. It took me about two seconds after leaving home to turn my back on that pile of crap they call a religion. Starting with the inquisition, to today, the catlicks have done nothing to promote society. They simply want to line their pockets with money and keep the masses poor and ignorant.
Massachusetts had the same problem, but the catlick charities was using government buildings to carry out their discrimination. I understand that catlick charities finally folded up their tents and no longer provide adoptions in Massachusetts. Perhaps San Francisco and force them out also. Any place that doesn't have any catlicks is a better place.
You will have to over look my inability to even say the name of that vile religion.
