We've seen several stories like this lately, including the single female teacher who was fired for getting pregnant and having the baby. It's interesting that Catholic educators don't seem to know Catholic doctrine. I'm not Catholic, and even *I* know the Catholic church doesn't approve of IVF; how could she have missed it?
Exactly.
And I bet she was offered an alternative, but instead she got so indignant that anyone dare question the morality of her decision that she losther job over the issue.
Because --strange as it may seem--no priest ever said from the pulpit that IVF is against church teaching. There is a whole generation of priests who are in dissent from Catholic sexual teachings but who sin largely in omission. You think the CIA is ""diss"functional, consider the Catholic priesthood. Seldom do we hear "hard teachings." that cut to the core. You can see here an example of what they fear. Don't make them choose. Tell them the truth and and they cannot bear it.
