How would the Church know she is sexually active with her live-in lover? She is quite vocal about her activities as posted in her website. She seems quite the activist.
Well, since she's been in the paper, she's certainly "outed" now.
It is rather amazing this whole thing made the paper in the first place.
What kind of mental illness allows one to shout, "It's for the children" one minute and the next minute use then like a hand grenade in the culture war?
You're the one who posted;
OpusatFR;"You cannot be kind and practice Charity without practicing justice."
And you did so in opposition to my view that the little girl should not be denied entry into the Catholic school, which can afford to be charitable toward the child.
That the child should not be punished or stigmatized for the sins of her mother.
So what "justice" are you suggesting needs to be practiced in order to be charitable toward this child?
You're not making any sense.
You are back to the idea of tolerance and acceptance for the sake of tolerance and acceptance.
Not true. Nothing I've posted has a thing to do with the Catholic church tolerating and/or accepting sin or compromising their moral convictions on anything.
Once again, it is that the child should not be punished and stigmatized for her mothers sexual life.
You apparently don't read. I've posted the Church's position on divorce which relates directly to one of your posts. It also lends itself to the argument on continued homosexual relations and the aspect of the sacraments and attendance at Mass.
Nobody is suggesting that openly practicing lesbians should have the right to attend mass and receive the Catholic communion.
And I never disagreed with the Church's position on divorce.
Once again, neither of these things have a thing to do with the issue I was debating.
The first condition would be there signature on a piece of paper acknowledging that the Catholic religion teaches that homosexual behavior is wrong and sinful.
The second condition would be that, like a designated hitter, they would have to designate one Mom to interact at school.
My grandkids go to Catholic School in part to avoid the moral relativism taught in public schools that is contrary to our faith and our beliefs and I see no reason why others footing the bill for the same reason must have Heathers two Mom's shoved in their face.
I don't think there is any excuse for a person not knowing where the Catholic Church stands on homosexuality.
It's not exactly a secret.
The second condition would be that, like a designated hitter, they would have to designate one Mom to interact at school.
Right. When it comes to dealing with the school, her mother is her mother. None of this "two mommies" weirdness.
My grandkids go to Catholic School in part to avoid the moral relativism taught in public schools that is contrary to our faith and our beliefs and I see no reason why others footing the bill for the same reason must have Heathers two Mom's shoved in their face.
Let's face it. If "Daddy's Roomate", "Heather Has Two Mommies" and assorted nonsense of the "Rainbow Curriculum" was rejected and removed from New York City schools..there is no way this crap would fly in Catholic school. They would close the schools first.
It was a very short segment which left much unanswered. O'Reilly apparently also interviewed her on his radio show. Anyone catch it?
Didn't change my opinion, either, which is that the school made the right decision.
I saw it.
Now we see that all these accusations that she is a lesbian activist using her daughter to attack the Catholic Church and to push a gay agenda...are all completely out of line.
No surprise that the same people who were pushing this fictional nonsense were also throwing wild and hysterical accusations at me for defending the little girl.
Truly sad.
