text: I personally don't want politics and a person's extremist religion  to make decisions for the city of Portland.  Keeping extremists out of politics is very important to me in my decisions when I vote.  Extremist religions are dangerous to our society because their is always hate and exclusion of others and that isn't a religion it's a "cult'.  I'm not a Roman Catholic, but as I recall the Pope said he didn't judge LGBTQ and encouraged their involvement in the church.  American Roman Catholics woman definitely use birth control and the Pope recently said as a reminder to families that 'we're not rabbits' referring large families. Rational people use their ability to think beyond magical thinking and indoctrination of religious 'cult' beliefs.
