The location is on Harvard premises. The University could prevent this. It is horribly offensive to Christianity. This has nothing to do with Freerepublic other than the fact thay we are “conservatives” who support Judeo Christian values. This is a curse to the university, our nation, and our future.
“The location is on Harvard premises.”
So is Harvard Pro-Life. Does that mean that Harvard endorses the cause of life? Do you think Harvard is against legalized abortion?
So are the Harvard Republicans. Do you think Harvard is officially Republican, or endorses or supports the Republican Party?
There are some differences between, say, Harvard Pro-Life and Harvard Republicans versus the Harvard Extension School Student Cultural Studies Club. The main difference is that Harvard Pro-Life and Harvard Republicans are recognized student organizations, this extension school club is not. The difference is that Harvard Pro-Life and Harvard Republicans get to use university space and resources for free. This group had to rent the campus bar.
Could the university prevent this event at this point? Maybe, I'm not sure. The group has a rental contract with the bar. It wasn't necessary for the group to tell the bar management that they were holding a “black mass.” Once having signed the contract, I don't know what options the bar has to cancel.
But, if they found a way to do so, do you think that maybe the next step would be for liberals to ask the question, Why does Harvard allow the evil, women-hating anti-choice group Harvard Pro-Life to meet FREE on campus?
There are folks who consider what we believe to be hate causes, hate speech, and us to be hate groups. Harvard lets a lot of these folks operate unimpeded on their campus. Would you like to see pressure from inside and outside of campus to close down these organizations because to even permit these these organizations onto the campus is to support and endorse them, no?
Harvard works closely with the Catholic Student Association to meet the needs of Catholic students at Harvard. Many folks are now calling the Catholic Church a hate group that commits torture for not endorsing “abortion rights.” Would you like to see Harvard cease cooperating with the Catholic Student Association because folks say that means that Harvard is ENDORSING, or is RESPONSIBLE for the Catholic Church and the practice of Catholicism at Harvard?
Harvard is a big place. Over 20K students. Nearly 5K faculty. A couple thousand administrators and staff. A lot of people with a lot of different opinions. Harvard generally tries to be tolerant of all points of view, and tries to leave people be.
If you don't like that, remember that those of us who are practicing, orthodox Catholics hold to some distinctly-minority views about things.
There is no curse on Harvard generally because of this. What a disgusting, ugly, puerile, immature, evil, untrue thing to say. Any curse accrues to the people actually holding this event. You slander, demean and calumniate (a mortal sin, by the way) a lot of good, decent people, including a lot of devout Catholics at Harvard when you say garbage like this. Did you say that you were in some way going to be affiliated with Harvard?
