I disagree. First, I was not chastising the school, merely making an observation. Strict adherence to dogma trumps education. There appeared to be information indicating that he was an excellent teacher. But I said I believe as a private organization, the school has every right to do what it did, as long as such admissions are contractual reasons for termination.
Can you not understand that firing this teacher is an excellent indication that at least some within the Church are FINALLY getting serious about weeding out the homo-influence?
Was there some evidence that he was trying to imbue his personal lifestyle into his classes? I did not see that in the article.
In my anecdote above regarding the three homo teachers I had in high school, I left out one set of facts--only one was a priest. The other two were lay teachers.
I noticed in your examples that 1 of the three had reflected no evidence of improper behavior. If you are trying to say that homosexual teachers should be fired simply because they are homosexuals rather than because of their conduct, I again say that private schools have that right if the contracts contain that power. Do any of your examples include the quality of education provided by those identified as homosexuals but with no observation of improper conduct or teaching?
As for pedophiles, I'm sure you have seen the statistics on married heterosexuals who have a thing for children. As for the scandals that have plagued the Church with respect to priests. There is ample evidence that Church officials from the local diocese to the Vatican continually covered up such conduct until civil and criminal actions could no longer contain the scandals. There clearly has been a double standard.
