WTG bishop.
Don’t like it don’t go to a Catholic school.
The Republic is being consumed by terminal cancer.
So called Catholic schools are nothing more than ‘escapes’ for liberal parents who don’t want their kids in the public schools. Most of these parents don’t give a hoot about Catholicism or the faith. The true Catholics are in the minority there and more and more resort to homeschooling.
The way the opening paragraph was written, I couldn’t tell if the principal got suspended for canning the flamers or for not canning them.
I’m not catholic but I deeply respect this bishop for taking the stand he did. One must stand for truth, and the truth is that homosexuality is completely against scripture.
If I recall correctly, homosexual acts prevent one from entering into the Kingdom of God. A Catholic School must not honor grave sin, or place those broken vessels in teaching positions and authority. Pray that they are delivered of this “Thorn of the Flesh”
If those parents don't like the way the Catholic school INSISTS on Catholic values with their teachers, then they should send their children to public schools. There they don't get religion OR the three R's.
The real problem lay in who HIRED the Lesbian in the first place.
I worked at a Jewish school...and I am Catholic. It was only for a school year. I taught physical education and Spanish.
When the Rabbi interviewed me he did ask me one final question: if I attended Mass. I was able to answer him: "Yes, Rabbi L., I attend Mass daily." He was gratified to hear that.
Parts of America are already on life support.
EXACTLY!!!
The Holy Bible teaches that homosexual acts are evil, Romans 1:25-27 for example.
If the principal is merely upholding Catholic teaching (in this case, which is clearly Biblical), why is he being placed on leave?
Fire the righteous man and coddle the perverts. Yep, that’s undoubtedly God’s will at work.
These pathetic parents are setting a awful example for their children,
Your post sums it up very succinctly. Catholic schools are becoming an option for secular parents who want a better alternative to dumbed-down public schools.
“Seattle bishop Paul Etienne initially released a letter on February 19 that began, “With the voluntary resignation of two teachers from Kennedy Catholic High School recently, we as church [sic] have discovered once again the delicate and difficult reality of being one family of faith when our personal opinions create tension in the family of God.” “
That bishop needs to quit and go into the gardening business. Cause he sure can spread what makes the roses grow.
The story was quite confusing but I’m glad I read the whole thing. Kudos to the Archbishop. Now I’m just waiting to see when he’s going to be transferred or removed entirely. Promoting important Church teachings can be the death knell for many Catholic priests in modern America, unfortunately.
I guess it was the Bishop who put the principal on leave. From the poorly written story, I got the impression the Bishop was upholding Catholic teaching by removing the principal who obviously allowed these gay instructors to teach there. Perhaps I was wrong. I’m gonna do more research to find out more info before I comment further.
