Refusing to support a “Gay awareness Day” Bay area nuns take a stand for Catholic doctrine
The Coach's Team ^ | 5/18/16 | Kevin "Coach" Collins

Posted on 05/18/2016 8:52:27 AM PDT by Oldpuppymax

In response to their own Catholic high school’s participation in a day of silence designed to show support for homosexuality, five nuns walked out of their classrooms last week. These strong women decided to stand with Catholic doctrine in recognition of their faith, beliefs and mission to teach their students the Church’s position on aberrant sexuality.

Billed as a “national Day of Silence” the stunt was concocted by the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network a New York organization which has been pushing the “Day” scheme since 2000. The stand taken by the nuns comes as an affirmation of the authority of Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone who is the bishop of the diocese which includes Marin.

The archbishop has, “proposed requiring teachers and staff members at Marin Catholic and three other parochial high schools to accept contract and handbook language condemning homosexuality, same-sex marriage, abortion and birth control.”

Archbishop Cordileone has been a “problem” for San Francisco’s fake Catholics – particularly Nancy Pelosi – since he was assigned to his position several years ago. He has forced Pelosi to make a series of stupid and unfounded remarks about Catholic doctrine and is not well received by the general CINO (Catholic In Name Only) community.

In explanation of their action, the five Dominican Sisters of Mary Mother of the Eucharist issued a letter directed to their students saying, “We went home on Friday because what happened was inappropriate. We went home because we were made to feel uncomfortable and used for another’s agenda. We went home because the Catholic school and faith that we love was being compromised.”

The sisters said they learned of the event from a Facebook announcement that appeared on the Marin Catholic High School’s page...

How can anyone who adheres to--or even respects--any of the Biblical Faiths, not refuse to participate in an absolute mockery of the lesson inherent in Lot's experiences in Sodom?

Why are so many totally "on board," as it were, with openly mocking Genesis.

I understand tolerance of people with a problem. But this goes way beyond that. If it is not an open mockery, what is it?

Ayn Rand!!! Might as well type the whole darn thing out.

When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing; when you see that money is flowing to those who deal not in goods, but favors; when you see that men get rich more easily by graft then by work; and your laws no longer protect you against them, but protect them against you; you may know that your society is doomed. Atlas Shrugged.

over my dea...now I am just pissed. : )

Fixed it.

yes and no... most “ordinary” people never get to know such people except externally. the trouble with the system as it is, is that such people are showing themselves to be perpetual pity party throwers. asking to be helped with every legitimate purpose is one thing, asking to be celebrated in pity parties is quite another.

I don't think anyone can "mandate" feelings, likes or dislikes.....those nuns have every right to abide by their beliefs just as this pushy group does. "The sisters recognized this as an opportunity for bullying by the left on an issue they were willing to fight over and they did just that. They reported that, “Some students told us that when they declined the stickers, they were yelled at and openly criticized…”

#gay #straight #bisexual why is it, these types want everyone to know who they are, how they feel....I could care less and am getting mighty tired of hearing them whine and yell MEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEME....Look at mememememememe, I am gayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Who could have thought any of this happening back when you were in Catholic school?

It’s become a kind of odd ride, halfway on the bible, halfway on the world.

We are all too aware of gays. They have gained power over the normal people, and are a politically-protected class that is allowed to engage in self-destructive behavior and is rewarded for it.

To: I want the USA back

And even the “religious” world is ill prepared in many instances to deal with it, because they don’t really have a robust concept of sin, righteousness, repentance, and reconciliation.

The churches have (in practice if not in “official” professed doctrine) often become fast and loose with the gift of human sexuality, and have thus undermined their own moral authority against others’ ideas of becoming fast and loose with it.

To: I want the USA back

As for wanting the USA back ... God wants our individual hearts and souls back. If that is achieved across a pertinent geographical region, then a country may come along with it. But first things first. We can’t have a right to stamp our feet and demand any more than libertines do.
