The nuns at Marin Catholic High in Kentfield walked out their classes in protest over gay non-profit sponsoring anti-bullying Day of Silence.
The divisions within the Bay Area’s Catholic community over gay rights hit Marin Catholic High School full force the other day, when a group of nuns walked out of their classes to protest the sponsors of a program intended to protect gay and lesbian teens from bullying.
The five members of the Dominican Sisters of Mary order exited their classrooms Friday as students began handing out flyers at the Kentfield school promoting a nationwide Day of Silence.
Their walkout came one day after 100 prominent local Catholics attracted national attention by taking out a full-page ad in The Chronicle calling on the pope to oust Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone, in part for trying to get teachers at Catholic schools to sign off on a morality clause that characterizes homosexual relations as “gravely evil.”
Marin Catholic High President Tim Navone and Principal Chris Valdez tried to put out the latest brushfire with a letter to parents about “a challenging day on our campus resulting in both students and faculty feeling confused about our mission.”

I don’t get it. Where are the pantsuits and frizzy grey hair?!
Freegards
Good for them, they have “testicles.”
The nuns were right.
This from the full story:
**but the nuns at Marin Catholic High see it as anti-Catholic.**
God bless those nuns.
That “day of silence” was just one more bit of pro-pervert propaganda aimed at influencing young students in elementary and secondary schools.
Big ones...
Now where were the Catholic students??
Nuns not Sisters! LOL!
So funny to see how things have flipped. It used to be the old nuns who wore habits while the young ones were all “modern”. Now its the old hippie dinosaurs who are out of uniform (The ones with the crew cuts who love Earth Day more than Easter, who pray the “Our Mother”, and use crystals instead of Rosaries. The younger ones are now the ones wearing habits and their orders are growing.
**The younger ones are now the ones wearing habits and their orders are growing.**
Very true!
God bless these good and faithful sisters. No doubt they will be spat upon by the beautiful people and the modern homosexual thought police.
**whose corporate sponsors include McDonald’s, Target, Disney/ABC, Wells Fargo, Morgan Stanley, Google and the NBA**
Can we boycott all the sponsors listed above?
wow This is the first I had heard about this and I live only couple of miles from the school!
Thank you
It’s one of life’s mystery to me.
I know why I, personally, don’t join and/or become involved in specific religious denominations.
Why those same denominations allow open unbelievers to claim fellowship, membership and/or communion is beyond me.

Ah! Real nuns! Aren’t they so beautiful?!
Don’t mess with those Catholic Kung Fu Nuns.....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYeaBK1Immg
Wow!

When nuns have bigger balls than most of our elected “conservative” leaders...
They don’t answer to Fortune 500 companies like the Republicans and Democrats do.
