Has Wuerl actually had a "change of heart"? Did he originally refuse permission for this event and then change his mind?

From the sound of the trash talking about Dolan, it seems more likely that "Catholics for Equality" were given short shrift in New York and ended up getting Wuerl to give the thumbs up at Georgetown.

I have a strong feeling the press release is a lie. Does Cardinal Wuerl have authority to forbid speakers at Georgetown?

We are glad to see that one of the nation’s leading Catholic Universities is promoting dialogue over dogmatism a dangerous form of religious fundamentalism in the Church.

Is this to say that the Rainbow Sash Movement and other gay christian organizations have problems with a lot of The Bible?

Gay Catholics...nope...can't be...one or the other...not both.

I you choose to be gay, you can't be a Catholic.

Sorry, check with God, I didn't make the rules, but I agree with them.

Susan Gibbs, communications director for the Archdiocese of Washington, called the Rainbow Sash press release a “nice piece of fiction” and asserted that Catholics for Equality was not a legitimate Catholic organization.

“Putting the label ‘Catholic’ on a group doesn’t make it Catholic,” Gibbs told LifeSiteNews.com. “It’s not a Catholic organization. It was formed in opposition to Catholic teaching.”

But Gibbs said the D.C. archdiocese was not involved in the decision to host Catholics for Equality on the campus of Georgetown, which is under the jurisdiction of the Jesuit order.

Let them debate all they want; they are wrong and will lose the debate. Then pray for them.

I’m really doubting the truth of this.
