Pursuit of the truth requires more than imagination: it requires the generation and decisive elimination of alternative possibilities until, ideally, only one remains, and it requires a habitual readiness to attack one's own convictions.

Gay Marriage in DC




The Catholic Archdiocese in Washington D.C. is threatening to stop its social service programs and helping people in need if Washington D.C. passes a bill regarding same-sex 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."


- Washington Post 11/12/09



What in the world is going on here? This is 2009 and the Catholic Church is clearly discriminating against homosexuals. This situation is very public and explicit. How and why would a moral person align themself with an organization that is blatently anti-human rights and anti-human?


They are willing to stop giving money to people in need because a state wants to pass a marraige bill.


Awesome Christian values!

Please Consider Donating

I update this site on a very frequent basis, am passionate about what I do, respond to comments from my readers and engage my audience, am very active beyond the keyboard, and am not in any sort of 'ivory tower.' Unfortunately, blogging is no full-time well-paying position by any means. If you enjoy my work and would like to donate something -- even a dollar that you would never miss -- as a sign of appreciation, I would be very appreciative. Thank you!
