Catholic Diocese Defunds Homeless Shelter Because New Director Supports Marriage
In the Catholic Church's national campaign to make themselves ever more repulsive to the average American, the Diocese of Sacramento has cut off their funding of a local homeless shelter because its new director supports marriage equality.
In a letter last month, the diocese's director of social services said the Rev. Faith Whitmore's public statements on the issues clash with the teachings of the Catholic Church. Therefore, said the Rev. Michael Kiernan, the social services director, it is "impossible for the diocese to continue funding Francis House" as part of its annual Catholic Appeal. Each morning, dozens of poor people line up at Francis House, located in Sacramento's homeless services epicenter, for help with basic services such as housing and transportation. Now in its 42nd year, the organization is one of the largest homeless services agencies in the Sacramento region, serving upward of 25,000 people. It has an an annual budget of about $500,000.

The Bishops and Cardinals have never accepted America. They do not respect this country. They do not even accept the enlightenment.
The dioceses of Baltimore and Duluth are using their funds (contributed by their members) to support the anti-gay marriage movement.
The Knights of Columbus are doing the same.
To Hell with the Roman crime syndicate!
