Shame: Catholic Seton Hall University to show pro-homosexual "Brokeback Mountain" film
From Seton Hall University Web Site ^ | 07-17-06 | Edward Pennington

Hollywood movie "Brokeback Mountain" is scheduled to stage at Seton Hall University, a Catholic institution founded in 1865. The film is currently listed on the university’s web site under “Multicultural Program Film & Lecture Series.” Catholics are being called to peacefully protest because the film:

>>> Approves same-sex relations, adultery, nudity, profanity and drug use. It is a blow to Catholic education, America’s Christian roots, the institution of the family and very foundations of morality and society.

>>> "Brokeback Mountain" is the antithesis of authentic Catholic education. It scrambles human emotions and encourages students to tolerate sin. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops classified this pro-homosexual film as “morally offensive” – the lowest possible rating. Click here to protest now. Your signature will make an impact.

E-mail sent. Hope it has some effect, but frankly,I'm pessimistic.

If only the priests who have leadership positions at Seton Hall had the backbone to stand up for Catholic doctrine, this would not be allowed.

Let us pray.
