You might say that Fr. Jenkins of Notre Dame is not following this rule.

And then we have the secular world. All of you can take that on! LOL!

Thanks for sharing this information. Kind of like “Respect” in a way. Good thumbs-down shout out re Fr. Jenkins. Can he be replaced by Alan Keyes at Notre Dame?

Or Mary Ann Glendon??

Unfortunately not. Notre Dame is operated by the Holy Cross order and they determine the next presdient, etc.
