A gay student group is fighting for recognition at Seton Hall University, where administrators say it contradicts the Roman Catholic school's religious mission.

Stamp their heads with big pink triangles. They should be instantly recognizable then! (I thought gaydar was pretty infallible......)

Chastity and homosexuality

2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity,141 tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered."142 They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.

2358 The number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible. This inclination, which is objectively disordered, constitutes for most of them a trial. They must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided. These persons are called to fulfill God's will in their lives and, if they are Christians, to unite to the sacrifice of the Lord's Cross the difficulties they may encounter from their condition.

2359 Homosexual persons are called to chastity. By the virtues of self-mastery that teach them inner freedom, at times by the support of disinterested friendship, by prayer and sacramental grace, they can and should gradually and resolutely approach Christian perfection.

I think they have just been recognized. Recognized for the kind of militant, sodomitic, politically correct gang of thugs they are want another forum to spread their un-Christian and vile perversion among impressionable young minds.

Expect the ACLU to slither out from the nearest rock to provide these three dollar bills wiht help as soon as they are finished demolishing Christmas creches and propping up NAMBLA.

I certainly hope they are treated in a pastoral manner. Pass out condoms, claim God does not judge anyone, rewrite the Gospels to be inclusive and invite Church officials like one of the 23 from Chicago to explain how the church is hateful.

Homosexual Agenda Ping - it's getting fast and furious. Rick Santorum was right, and the end is not in sight. Gear up for some fighting or we won't recognize our society in ten years. (I barely recognize it now.)

Let me know if you want on or off this ping list.

P.S. I've got ideas about individuals can make a difference. I'll write it up later and add it to a ping, ad if anyone has ideas - executed or not - let's get them out there.
