Gay Us Catholics

Anglican spiritual leader Justin Welby is set to lead a task force that will focus on rebuilding relationships after religious leaders temporarily restricted the role of the Episcopal Church in their global fellowship as a sanction over the US church's acceptance of gay marriage.

Gay Catholics have invited Pope Francis to come and meet their community in person as he embarks on his first-ever visit to the United States on Tuesday.

The Presbyterian Church USA which accounts for just under two million members, voted on Tuesday to expand its definition of marriage to include gay and lesbian couples.

Pope Francis, already Time Magazine's "person of the year", has been given the same honor by another publication - this one dedicated to the gay and lesbian community.

A gay teacher at a Catholic high school was fired on Friday after he applied for a marriage license.

The Boy Scouts of America voted on Thursday to lift a century-old ban on openly gay scouts in a major victory for gay rights activists, but the decision means a sea of change for an organization that depends heavily on faith-based groups.
