I’m no longer Catholic, so I can’t say anything about Notre Dame...
But if BYU ever bestows an honorary degree on Obama, I won’t send my daughters there.

It’s just another Eastern Liberal-run university, nothing more.

They’re still cowering before PC. For some reason they are still afraid of Zero and being seen as racist.

The university should formally drop the name of Notre Dame.

The real question here isnt whether Notre Dame is still Catholic in any meaningful sense, its what it means to be Catholic in America today. 54 percent of Catholics voted for The One last fall and 67 percent approved of his job performance as of three weeks ago; majorities approve of torture in at least some circumstances and say theyre more likely to consider common sense and experience when making decisions than Church teachings; a narrow plurality think priests should be allowed to marry. Even on abortion and stem cells, those calling themselves Catholic are almost indistinguishable from non-Catholics (although there are sharp differences between non-Catholics and Catholics who attend mass regularly). And of course the Vatican itself is as squishy as can be when it comes to taking on Obama for his stances. The Church, ironically, seems to have the opposite problem from the GOP these days: Theyre so comfortable with centrists that its no longer clear what American Catholicism stands for. Which puts Notre Dame squarely inside the mainstream. Ouch.

Anyone can say they are a Catholic to a pollster. It isn’t like any proof is required. Anyone can lie to a pollster to skew a poll. These polls as to what “catholics” approve of or vote for are absolutely meaningless.

They’re no longer a viable football institution, either.
