I support his ouster.
It seems that the old thinking that homosexuals are 2% of the population is understated. Their recruitment efforts seem to be working.
Me too. He brought his ‘wife’ ? Um, Catholics don’t hold sodomy in high regard.
Might have been because his date’s shoes, dress and purse didn’t match and not so much about his sexuality.
Keyes...states that he was not told outright that he was being forced to quit, but suspected that the Chapter was being pressured by the Supreme Council with threats to cut funding."
Doesn't sound like he was ousted, but that he read the writing on the wall of what was probably coming down based on his public actions and preemptively resigned, while taking the opportunity to whine a little about being "discriminated" against. Whatever, the result is the right one.
Support his ouster.
Does he even study what he claims to honor and cherish?
We’re supposed to be outraged that a well-known Catholic organization sent a fudgepacker packing?
I left the Knights here in L.A. because they werent doing jack sh*t about charity, which was the reason why I joined. All we do is order pizza and drink beer at the meetings. Come to think of it, maybe I should have stayed..
So which club is open to *female* Catholic adults?
What is the logical counterpart to "Knights of Columbus" ..... "Ladies in Distress of Cleveland"?

Freak Show America 24/7. It’s getting old.

The K of C started out as a mutual benefit society to provide life insurance to Catholic working men. Most of the other societies that did that sort of thing in the 19th Century either discriminated against Catholics, or were organizations (like the Odd Fellows and Freemasons) which Catholics were prohibited from joining.
A practicing homosexual cannot truthfully she he supports the doctrines of the Catholic Church. He HAD to be kicked out; end of story.
Has no place in KoC.
Yeah, only slightly out of concert with the Church’s teachings. Historical, that is. Not from the current Marxist Liberation theory occupier of Peter’s Chair.
I remember well their original whine... ...all we ask for is a little tolerance...
Not to pollute over every corner of society.
That goes far beyond "just a little tolerance..."
