Yes. I wonder what the charges of hate speech brought by
Gay Alumni and Allies of Catholic Universities will amount to.

If you don’t like the course...DON’T TAKE IT!

To classify the normal day-to-day life of gay and lesbian citizens as being on par with that of murderers, rapists, and prostitutes is offensive, untrue, and an example of religious ideology being allowed to trump the scientifically demonstrated truth of the matter.

Uh - it's a religious university. It's responsibility is to teach what it believes God demands. What's the point of a Church that replaces God's teachings with man's opinions?

Of course we all know the gay advocates will not stop until they get the course removed from the curriculum. They are already charging it with being “hate promoting” and “unscientific”. And the dean admits that PART of the course will say that gays are NOT deviant - only one section explores that perhaps they ARE. But they will not allow that dissenting view, just watch them with their litigation.

Yes, you’re right - but these dolts believe that man-made opinion has supremacy over religion and word of God. They simply will allow NO dissent. They want ONE ideology to prevail, and all others must bow to it.

A group of gay university alumni and allies is challenging the Franciscan University in Steubenville, Ohio, over its inclusion of homosexuality in its course on “deviant behavior.”

Heh. Good luck with that. Franciscan has been solid and thriving for 25 years and more.

initially identified itself as “Franciscan Gay Alumni & Allies,”

. . . but had to change their name or get sued by Franciscan, since they're not alumni of that university. (Gotta lie, eh?)

To classify the normal day-to-day life of gay and lesbian citizens as being on par with that of murderers, rapists, and prostitutes is offensive . . .

. . . to rapists and prostitutes, perhaps. The Four Sins that Cry to Heaven for Vengeance (God's, that is) are 1) Willful Murder; 2) Sodomy; 3) Oppressing the widow and the orphan; and 4) Depriving the Workman of his just wages.

So, they have a point. Sodomy is classified as worse than some of the other things mentioned. But you can't explain everything in a course catalogue.

Who are they suing, then? The Pope? The Catholic Church? The Catechism.

Ahh, the pervs, you gotta love ‘em. Vicious, destructive, self-destructive - scorched earth policy on absolutely ANYTHING that does not line up with their delusion.

The Truth exposes the Lie every time.

I don't know about loving them, but I do feel sorry for them. They've been crying for the one thing they need since the 1980s, and they can't get it from the people of the United States because it isn't ours to give.

They've been crying for a sense of peace that comes from knowing they're OK. And they're not OK. And nothing we can do will make them OK, not ignoring them, not accepting them, not allowing them to marry, not teaching falsehoods in our schools.

They want the peace of God, and they can't have that until they align themselves with God. Until they figure that out, they can never be happy.

The group, which has no official connection to Franciscan University and initially identified itself as “Franciscan Gay Alumni & Allies,” ...

Would that be akin to "Democrat Party Freepers and Friends" ?
