“None of the parents or faculty knew it was being taped to be aired. They were essentially held hostage and told to clap after this man’s responses to questions, even when they didn’t agree with them.”
The left are training the kids to be good little brownshirts.
I don’t feel much sympathy for the Principal. He’s running a cafeteria catholic school, and he apologizes because the invited guest spoke the truth about Catholic teachings.
Also, note this comment from the first response to the news article, which contradicts what the reporter or the whiners said:
“So I go to Prout and was at the assembly. First off, we knew that this was a radio broadcast (IDK what this article is talking about), that was made perfectly clear to us, in fact, we were supposed to ask questions to Fr. Hoffman. Students whose questions were chosen, would get to ask them on the radio station.”
Hey Catholics
Divorce is wrong
Homosexual practice is wrong
Sex outside marriage is wrong
Abortion is wrong
If you can’t support this, get out.
But, as long as they do the seven sacraments...right?
The school needs to drop any connection to a church, they obviously don’t bother to teach any of it
Opus Dei is a wonderful order of priest. Very orthodox in their beliefs, very straight. I don’t think this person did anything wrong.
I also agree with the principal. One girl’s hearsay testimony is not enough.
What is it?? Guilty until proven innocent like with Sister Jane Dominic Laurel?
I doubt if we will get to hear this particular talk on the Relevantradio.com website, but here is a link to what sounds like a similar talk by Father Hoffman. I listened to it today myself. Sounds like this is part of the ongoing effort by the homosexual lobby to denigrate any and all efforts to use the REGNERUS study. Hoffman cites this study in his talk. It’s interesting that they are throwing this study up as being anti-single mother, anti-adoption, anti-divorced parents. It seems that all the weeping and gnashing of the teeth that goes on with their attempts to achieve homosexual rights isn’t working with a lot of churches. The homosexual lobby is now trying additional attacks on some of the exposed flanks.

I wonder what he said?
Father Z’s blog has an excellent take on this.
Parents send their kids to Catholic high school, and then both are shocked to discover Catholic doctrine being taught.
I’ll say it as often as stories like these come up: I’m an alum of a Protestant private school. If you send your kids to a religious school and then you and they get mad at being exposed to religious doctrine, even the controversial stuff (especially the controversial stuff), you’re overpaying for public school. And I’ll add that if you’re a religious school administrator, and your first instinct in cases like these is to apologize, you’re overcharging for public school.
And no, no, no. Now that Francis is pope, the Jesuits are back as the order conspiracy buffs have to worry about. Opus Dei can relax now.
