Washington state regulators warn Catholic bishop
Washington state regulators have warned a Roman Catholic bishop that his diocese risks running afoul of state campaign finance laws if he follows through with a planned fund-raising effort opposing same-sex marriage on the November ballot.
Episcopalians have approved the election of their second openly gay bishop despite a warning from the worldwide Anglican Church last year that ``gracious restraint'' in ordaining homosexual bishops and women priests is necessary to keep the church united.
