CWN Editor's Note: A Russian woman has been fined for “propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations” after she posted material on the internet that included the Vatican statement Dignitas Infinita, which condemned discrimination against homosexuals.

The woman, a member of the Scottish Episcopal Church in Russia, had also posted an essay by a co-religionist defending same-sex marriage, and a news item about an Episcopalian priest who was involved in a same-sex union. Correction: An earlier version of this story incorrectly said that Dignitas Infinita was the Vatican document allowing for blessings of same-sex unions. We regret the error.
