It's the teacher, Ms. Jannuzzi, who is defending the Catholic Church in the way most indispensible in our day: by defending Catholic moral doctrine, known to us by both Natural and Divine Law.
Jannuzzi seems to have imbibled the same attitude as our dear Pope Francis and his predecessor:
Francis (Cardinal Bergoglio, Buenos Aires)
"Let us not be naive: this [same-sex 'marriage' bill)is not simply a political struggle, but it is an attempt to destroy Gods plan. It is not just a bill (a mere instrument) but a move of the father of lies who seeks to confuse and deceive the children of God.'
His predecessor, Benedict XVI:
"The family, based on the marriage of a man and a woman . . . is not a simple social convention, but rather the fundamental cell of every society. Consequently, policies which undermine the family threaten human dignity and the future of humanity itself.
They went rather farther than Ms. Jannuzzi did.
I agree. However, the church is punishing her for her defense and "Salvation" defended THAT. That is what I meant.
