Jesuits aren’t Catholic.
Jesuits……..always Jesuits
I did some graduate studies there forty years ago and I had a positive experience. The place had a good spirit.
Ah, well.
Jesuits are Marxists. That the Roman Catholic Church doesn’t excommunicate these heretics is a big question.
It is painful to have to observe that — in the vast percentage of instances —- the word “Jesuit” in a report is usually a reliable signal for sone sort of immoral or anti-Biblical act or statement
I thought Jesuits were the Society of Jesus, not Society of Homos.
Best way to change policy in this area is by changing library personnel. Statutory or referenda changes are easier targets for leftist judges.
I disagree with the refusing of books in a library as it hammers freedom of speech.
Years ago you could go into a video store and the adult section was separated and marked as such so it was available for use. But it was not denied. The same thing could be done with books identified as inconsistent with the theology of the using library and could be expanded to cover authors attacking the religious part of the facilities. Separate, but equal. It allows the library to protect itself.

These people aren’t Christians. They must be the Devils minions.
“This is about restricting access of porn to CHILDREN.”
The article indicates pushing back against pornography is being requested for Jesuit students. If they are going to ban books based upon their ideology of what’s right and wrong then that opens up the reverse. Would it be acceptable for a library to ban the Bible, the Bhagavad Gita, the Book Of Mormon, the Book Of Common Prayer, the Ramayana, the Torah, the Tripitaka, or the Kojiki?
We, in this country, live in a world of freedom of speech with regulations established to try to control that that shouldn’t get into some circles. But if you are not providing an outlet to the right circles, then you are not completing our citizen’s wishes. And since it is so readily available on the web, why does banning books help?
In a study done by BlockerX, 40 million individuals in the United States frequent pornographic websites on a regular basis. A woman accounts for one out of every three visitors to pornographic websites. Every day in the United States, 37 new pornographic videos are produced. Every second, around $3,000 is spent on pornographic material. Pornography accounts for 35% of all internet downloads.

And their worry is some books in a library that they can monitor and control if the material was situated? So ban it and the slope gets slippery and inconsistent with our Constitution. Control it, and it becomes very tiny considering the other options to get to it that are available. And if you want to get on to someone, where are the parents? They are leaving the raising of their kids to someone else. And in too many cases, the government that can’t possibly raise their own or act age appropriate.
No, I have not been in a monastery. I’ve been in the real world learning how to cope with problems rather than attack them while determining compromise. The group is not going to stop the viewing but they can control it in the little corral they are interested in while still allowing the providing of it to those that wish who aren’t children. So are they really accomplishing something? Not much if any.
