Is it still considered a Catholic university and if so, why?

When it the Catholic church going to take a stand on these moral issues and actually either make the university fall in line with official Catholic teaching, or completely sever all ties with it?

You thought they were calling it a Catholic university.

In fact, they were calling it “Cath-o-like”.

They honor the parts of Catholicism they like, and ignore the parts they don’t like.

You mean is the Catholic church going to hold unchanging Scripture as supreme, as the wholly inspired and accurate word of God? Otherwise obedience is to be according to how the leadership interprets itself.

..Jenkins confirmed that this isn't a question of law but a one of policy. "Apart from any legal obligation," he said, "we recognize an urgent call to welcome, support and cherish our gay and lesbian brothers and sisters." After referring to past injustices to homosexuals, he declared, "Our abiding goal…is to build a less imperfect community of love."

The church will not take a stand as long as it is run by the proggs. And I don’t think that day is coming any time soon.
