"They'd only be scheduling last rights for me as I lay in my hospital bed."
My wife taught at a Catholic high school about 5 years ago and it was more liberal than the local public high?? In fact the nuns wore shorts and called each other by their first names. (I think there were only 3 nuns in the school but you couldn't tell who they were -- they hired a bunch of young single teachers as the staff.) The nuns were always trying to prove they were hip and cool and in-tune with the times.
When you throw the baby out with the bath water it is hard to find the baby again and I fear that the Catholic Church is trying too hard to be PC and needs to seperate itself from the world as it once did. As an Episcopalian I have experienced a church turned to apostasy. We just had a Gay Bishop and another guy get married in San Francisco so that is how bad it gets.
Good point. All involved should go down, not just the whistleblower.
Yep, and not only did the mother not inform the school before going to the media, but her daughter was the bracelet "dealer" at the school! Somehow, the fact that her daughter was selling these bracelets at school seemed to have slipped her mother's mind, when the mom was whining about how unfair the school was for throwing out her little darling.
Same with mine, and I only graduate from one 9 years ago. My, how have things changed.
Is that a real product or something made up?
Oh, what an easy excuse!
So, why didn't she go to the principal?
They were wearing these when I was in junior high and high school, in the mid-1980s! Similar BS rumors about their supposed sexual meaning occasionally floated around back then, as well. All that happened is that the "kinkier" colors became more popular for everyone to wear, even though we all knew that 98% of the girls wearing them weren't getting any sexual contact from anybody. (You could buy any colors you wanted from half the stores at the mall.)
Doesn't any Gen-Xers here remember "friendship pins" from elementary school either? Those colors supposedly had "meaning," as well. Same results.
If I saw a nun today in full garb, I would stop dead in my tracks and wait for her to tell me what to do. Doesn't matter that I'm 45 yrs old. No way would I do something wrong in front of a nun. Somehow, cops in nun outfits could be a win - win situation for the crime rate.hahahahaa..
Who woulda thunk it
