Two years ago, the San Francisco city and county board passed a resolution that officially labeled the Catholic church's moral teachings on homosexuality as "insulting to all San Franciscans," "hateful," "defamatory," "insensitive" and "ignorant". This resolution will be challenged today (July 17th) in court for violating the Constitution's prohibition of government hostility toward religion.
The city's resolution stated that the church's teaching on homosexuality reflected, "Such hateful and discriminatory rhetoric is both insulting and callous, and shows a level of insensitivity and ignorance which has seldom been encountered by this Board of Supervisors."
Really?
If this is true, where is the resolution which condemns the homosexual teaching in Islam? (Long pause here for silence as “progressives” gulp for air, but say nothing.)
One can imagine the fallout if San Francisco passed a resolution labeling the teachings on homosexuality in Islam as "hateful," "defamatory," "insensitive" and "ignorant".
If the San Francisco city and county board truly believed in their resolution, they would also include all religions that condemn homosexuality. But then again, that would take intellectual honesty, something which is sorely missing.

Great, now Islam is more popular then Catholicisim. At least Catholics don't kill people who disagree with them.
WND reported that one week after the anti-Catholic resolution was passed, the San Francisco Board issued a similar resolution against a mostly evangelical group. It appears that offense is only taken if the groups fall under the Christian category.
At least in the Presbyterian denomination, there are more Muslims (4 million according to Britannica) than Presbyterians (about 3 million) in the U.S.
