French flag tribute to Pope sparks left-wing anger

PARIS, April 4 (Reuters) - As Catholics mourned the death of Pope John Paul, crazed anti-God French leftwingers and a major communist teaching union criticised the government on Monday for ordering flags on public buildings to be lowered in a sign of respect.


Are you surprised? Any government deference shown to religion is considered an affront by those who are atheists. Besides, there are extremists on both sides of the political page.
