Two bishops led about 1,000 devout, sign-carrying Roman Catholics on a five-block march through North Beach on Saturday to protest same-sex marriages in San Francisco.
"We need to speak out, with civility," Archbishop William Levada said on the steps of SS Peter and Paul Church before leading the procession of the faithful. "We must keep society on the right track.'' Levada called same-sex marriages a "regression in society" and urged passage of a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriages in order to "stand up for the bedrock of society -- marriage and family. ... The only possible resolution of this is a constitutional amendment."
