Subject: RE: BS: Secularity vs Religion
"At that the Supreme Court of California just ruled a Catholic charity was not a religious organization for the purpose of exempting it from hiring laws. If it isn't a religious organization for that, it isn't one for the purposes of withholding Federal funding either."

That wasn't what the ruling said. The ruling said that religious organizations can't discriminate in hiring in ways that violate the constitution, which simply holds them to the same standards as every other employer.
