Volokh on the San Francisco resolution

A few weeks ago, some of us blogged about the recent non-binding resolution passed by the San Francisco Board of Supervisors "urging Cardinal William Levada, in his capacity has head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith at the Vatican, to withdraw his discriminatory and defamatory directive that Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of San Francisco stop placing children in need of adoption with homosexual households."

Eugene Volokh has a interesting post on the subject.  And, I note that a lawsuit has been filed, alleging that the First Amendment "forbids an official purpose to disapprove of a particular religion, religious beliefs, or of religion in general."  (Thanks to Religion Clause.)
