Not a word in that little blurb about living a lifestyle compatible with the teachings of the Bible. I guess needing to look tolerant is more important to these schools than being a place where God's Word is taught and honored.

Mother Angelica said many years ago that liberalism was taking over many Catholic colleges.

I was doing a little websearching yesterday and was astounded to find out that the clarion call warning about the homosexual agenda against the Catholic Church has been sounding for decades. A priest name Enrique Rueda wrote a book called The Homosexual Network: Private Lives and Public Policy back in 1982.

Sick and twisted, sick and twisted. The Catholic church has sunk so far its rather sad, just like the Anglicans and are also being followed by the Lutherins. Seems soon only the Orthodox will hold up the Light of Christ. But maybe that's why our faith has suffered so much and is hated so much by many of these others?

"That the RCC is being overrun with this is indeed shocking, as Rome makes no bones about homosexual conduct being evil."

It is the disadvantage of any old, large, organization.

Bureaucrats create their little fiefdoms and there is huge institutional inertia. Big like a ship. The captain can say "hard starboard," but the order goes through a couple of officers, to the guy who spins the wheel, which really only rings a bell in the engine room, where guys actually the rudder --- and then it takes a while for the ship to respond.


Here, you are dealing with several reluctant crewman, many of whom disagree with turning starboard, so they shuffle their feet.

The US State Department (and most all of unelected Washington) has the same problems.

Part of the inherant weakness (and strength) of a hierarchy.

The conference drew about 150 people, most of them faculty and administrators who deal with gay subject matter or students.

"most of them faculty and administrators"? It could be anybody from junior assistance professor to the clerk from the administration office. It looks like self-appointed conference.

Homosexual Agenda Ping.

I hope that the Vatican gang who is supposedly (last I heard) going around to seminaries to clean out apostacy and homosexuality makes a second tour to visit all the CINO Catholic Universities.

I hope someone sends the Pope this article.

An entire housecleaning is in order. Luckily, Coleus has a list of Catholic colleges and universities which are good, check them out.

Freepmail me AND DirtyHarryY2K if you want on/off this pinglist.

Tired of the crap that eating shellfish is morally equivalent to homosexual acts, what to speak of the "gay" agenda promoting same to kids.

And no, I don't eat shellfish. Or lobster.

Why the heck do homosexuals ALWAYS want to be treated differently? I thought they were the same as everyone else.

Now we have to have a conference on how gays and lesbians fit in at Catholic universities guided by a faith that says homosexuality is wrong.

We have to have have offices and staff people specifically geared toward LGBT concerns. Is there an office to address the concerns of what a lot of people here would consider normal people?

WTF, over?

You're right, God does not approve of that life choice. Do you work on the sabbath? Eat pork or shellfish? God has as much to say about that as he does homosexuality.

That is an outright lie. In the chapter where God condemns homosexuality, Leviticus 19, He lists the disgusting practices of pagan peoples that has earned them destruction. He lists homosexuality alongside incest, bestiality, and child human sacrifice. He then concludes the chapter with a death threat. I think when someone makes a death threat he is being very serious about communicating where the line is and the line was well short of shrimp.

Well, actual death is an even more effective show of displeasure than a mere death threat.

So be careful not to call anybody "baldy". He might be a Prophet of God (2 Kings 2:23-24)....

'Mere' death threat from God ?

And prophets dressed differently. Elijah had a special mantle that he gave to his disciple Elisha. Everyone who saw Elijah knew he was a prophet.

Your ignorance seems to be extending in all directions tonight.

New Catholic University is now John Paul the Great Catholic University. It is in San Diego, California.

Holy Spirit Institute is no more.

I guess it didn't have enough funding.
