The installation of a new Roman Catholic archbishop of San Francisco, a backer of California's same-sex marriage ban, is drawing support and concern as the 56-year-old priest assumes the ceremonial seat at St. Mary's Cathedral during a Mass Thursday, Oct. 4, 2012. Salvatore Joseph Cordileone, a native Californian who served as bishop of neighboring Oakland for the past three-and-a-half years, has a nationwide reputation as a fierce defender of the Catholic Church's positions on homosexuality in general and same-sex marriage in particular.
