Thanks for the lesson. Sad.
The 60s really was the nail that sealed our coffin.
Way back in the 1980s, Cardinal O’Connor actually made the government back down on trying to force foster care institutions to provide or refer children for abortions by threatening to get out of the business.
Unfortunately, none of the bishops after him had the guts to do this, and now these institutions have either been driven out of business by local laws or are pathetically appealing not to be forced into doing abortion referrals.
The problem is that the cowardly bishops didn’t stand up and the state got so powerful that it now feels it can do anything it wants to and it really doesn’t care whether these services are provided or not. The important thing is not care or even education, but indoctrination. Islam is very useful to the state because it demands total obedience.

“...highlights the need for such religious institutions to do a better job of spelling out their teachings and expectations for potential employees, a Catholic educator said.”
I stopped reading right there.
What part of “Catholic organizations neither condone nor encourage sodomy; persons who openly profess engaging in sodomy will not be contactually employed” is difficult to understand?
You nailed it.
The guy “came out” as being actively engaged in a perverse, ungodly relationship.
IMO the gays—as well as the rest of us—were far better off when they stayed “in the closet.”
They knew they were doing something unnatural, so they were discreet. Over the decades, I worked with numerous apparent homosexuals (we called them “bachelors”) and never ever witnessed anybody being fired for their presumed sexual proclivities, simply because nobody’s sex life was discussed in the workplace.
You were hired, promoted, or fired based on job competency. Period.
Gay marriage means they are out of the closet and in everybody’s face with their proclivities.
Now they MUST be hired and given access to children—BECAUSE of what they do. And it’s their “right” to talk about their sexual obsessions, even in front of children, because disallowing same is now “discrimination.”
