If he was openly homosexual, I don't understand why the Church hired him and kept him this long -- when his lifestyle was NOT compatible with the moral teachings of the Catholic Church the entire time...

He may have been out or he may have just showed up with his friend. I doubt whether they announced it to his students or proclaimed it from the altar. Have a ceremony and a license takes it to a new level.

If he was openly homosexual I can’t see why any school would hire him.
Letting men (and women) with his disorder near children is never a good idea.

There has already been cases like this, one I remember was a female teacher and the school won the case.

Hooray for the school. I hope they stick to their guns and don’t cave when the libtards descend on them.

They can take a stand with their immoral lifestyles, why can’t we stand for morality?

Griffin ... told Philadelphia TV station NBC10 that the school knew he was gay
The school probably has a very different story.

” why cant we stand for morality?”
Not to mention religious freedom.
He was teaching in a CATHOLIC school!

Same reason for keeping gay priests.
The idea that just because someone is "attracted to the same sex" doesn't seem to be a threat to whomever decides such things.
As my husband says, when one has gay "leaders" whether it is for choir boys, Boy Scouts, Boy's and Girl's clubs, that is "target marketing."
No sane person who takes their "non-judgmental" blinders off, would believe that trouble wouldn't be in store and what's worse, the children in their charge always wind up being molested!

The school's headmaster, Fr. James McCloskey, told the station that Griffin violated his contract and the school's policy by obtaining the license. Even though these gay teachers have contracts and they are most likely clearly violated the contracts it is only a matter of time before Obama and the Democrats have stacked the courts with enough Leftist activist judges that private schools will eventually have no right to fire these perverts.

Absolutely right. The principal should be fired for even hiring this sexual deviant.

If he was openly homosexual, I don't understand why the Church hired him and kept him this long -- when his lifestyle was NOT compatible with the moral teachings of the Catholic Church the entire time... He probably got in under the radar not giving any impression he might be gay. I know a gay guy who wears a wedding ring not because he is married to his pal, but he wears it in order to fend off the women who think he is a great catch. So, the teacher probably hid it well knowing his employer would not like his amoral lifestyle.

The article claims he was “openly gay”... so how come the church didn’t know?

Gay teacher fired from Catholic school Why was he so happy?
Or are they speaking in code, trying to avoid saying he is a disease-ridden boy-raping whackjob?
