Didn't ND just authorize a GLBT (whatever) chair, or something like that ?

Notre Dame will never recover in the eyes of the Catholic community after inviting Obama to speak and honoring this most vile pro abortion President with an honorary degree. They have learned nothing.

Certainly, the Catholic Church and some of her leaders have stumbled. Notre Dame made the blunder of bestowing pro-abortion President Obama with an honorary degree and inviting him to deliver the May, 2009 commencement keynote address.

Sow the wind... Reap the whirlwind.

No sympathy for Notre Dame University.

Rabbit trailing, here? Or outright thread-jacking? Inquiring minds want to know.

They have mountains to move if they’re looking for redemption in the authentic catholic community
The catholic college circuit is a whole different story. They, except a notable 20 or so, have pro abortion leftist s speak all the time. They cover up crucifixes for them

From the article:

All of us—Catholic, Jewish, Baptist, Protestant, Hindu and atheist alike—have an interest in Notre Dame’s lawsuit. Let’s come together in supporting their efforts to protect our natural right to free speech and free expression.

The Jenkins quote speaks for every freedom loving American. That is, if Americans bother to show up at all.

Seems there are plenty taking their cue from Baracko’, preferring to balcanize both brains and brawn, to delay and deny any and all force of unity around anything, even a hang nail.

Thanks for posting.

Good try, but there is no power in the entire Country that is strong enough to make a difference. We are communists controlled with King Obama, the communists BLACK Muslim, at its head.

It was more than just inviting Obama to speak and giving him honors.

There were about 80 (I think) priests and lay people who were praying the rosary in protest on the campus.

Notre Dame had them arrested, they pressed charges and had the priests under threat of criminal prosecution for almost a year.

I think one of these arrested priests was in his eighties.

eCSMaster:

The priest in his 80s who was prosecuted at the insistence of Jenkins was the now deceased Fr. Norman Weslin, who had worked for Mother Teresa in New York City and had spent a lot of time in jail leading the most militant abortion mill Rescues in the country. I had the privilege of representing him elsewhere and he was a living saint. Jenkins is not fit for the priesthood much less to shine Fr. Weslin's boots.

Not only did Jenkins welcome the White House antichrist to be honored at Notre Shame but the university itself has degenerated massively and forfeited any claim to Catholicism under Frs. Theodore Hesburgh, Monk Malloy and Jenkins. Think of ND as an anti-Catholic institution that sometimes has good football teams. Don't look too closely at what happens daily on campus.

As to the lawsuit against Obozocare, that's nice but I would feel the same way about any litigation against ANYTHING Obozo does. If Jenkins and Notre Shame had not been soooo verrrry eager to sanitize Obozo and, in effect, show him every support, perhaps he would not have been POTUS in the first place. Of course that would have also required a GOP with ideological backbone to name cqndidates worth electing.

I suspect what triggered the lawsuit was that the White House denied a request by Notre Dame for an exemption from the mandate.

I do not recognize Notre Dame as a Catholic college.

Not as long as Jenkins is running it.

IMO Jenkins has no business speaking for any Catholic.

That’s why their name is Notre Shame.
