Yes, this was Notre Dame. It was NOT Georgetown or Catholic University.

Any relationship between Notre Dame and the Catholic faith is purely coincidental.

He was the only member of the ND administration to join the protest, many faculty members joined the protest.

“based upon things I know, I’m also 100% behind his removal from the job. It has nothing to do with the Obama protest.”

Well spill those cool bean, unless it’s double secret probation classified.

We’d all love to hear why he should be fired.

The Catholic Church should officially sever all ties with the university, and all other “Catholic” institutions like it, that fail to uphold and defend the teachings of the Church. I say this as a non-Catholic.

I have been a fan of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish since I can remember - more than 60 years. As awful as I feel about the administration’s inviting Imam Hussein to deliver the commencement address, I can’t abandon the tradition of Johnny Lujack, Paul Hornung, Leon Hart, Johnny Lattner, Terry Brennan, inter alia.

I understand they have a Mormon on their football team as well...and consider THAT to be a scandal.

Fortunately, I've always agreed with post number 12; ND sucks.

**Bill Kirk, a long-time member of the Notre Dame community and the only administration member to join a protest against President Obama’s appearance on campus, was abruptly terminated.**

I bet this professor would win if he were to take this to court.

If the Roman Catholic Church doesn’t finally yank this insti-stupid-ition’s permission to claim the umbrella of the church, it is in essence dragging Jesus Christ’s name through the mud its own self.

That may in fact be the goal. Better to take it back to prior principles.

“Notre Dame” is maybe Gaia to them?

Golden Dome, 09-19-09, photo by John O'TooleMaybe it's because I'm married to one of the more positive alums of Notre Dame, but I don't think Jenkins is going to be successful in bringing ND down. I don't know what Our Lady has in store, but she has a mighty big presence (quite literally) at the university, and if enough people pray for Notre Dame, I think she will win over all ... but I agree with you, this is disgusting ... why would a priest hand his soul over to the devil? ... he, of all people, should know better ...

Does Notre Dame turn people into pompous A holes or were they that way before they went there? I’m sorry, but it is true based on the small sample I have met.

Why do Catholics continue to do great evil without consequences from authority right up the line to the Pope? The Pope according to Catholic law is over every aspect of The Catholic Church and has complete authority to discipline and therefore complete responsibility for proper discipline. Without proper and timely discipline morality surely breaks down which has been happening at an alarming rate and many within the church seem to believe anything goes. Why is so much corrupting evil allowed??? There is great discrepancy here.

“can’t abandon the tradition of Johnny Lujack, Paul Hornung”

You mean the has been tradition.

ND losing Bowl record is now 14-15

They suck. Out of principle I wouldn’t send my kids to that school if they begged me.

They lost me when they allowed the most pro-abortion President in history to speak there.

Notre Dame is suffering for turning their collective backs on God.

But that priest is under orders from Rome. The Pope can do something.

Not too long ago Notre Dame was trying to import Tariq Ramadan to teach.
