it’s a Catholic university.

For marketing purposes only.

[wally_bert]

Dr Who spinoff that was darker and more violent than Who. High body count and a sharp looking Rover.

I have long thought that the Jesuits should have long ago been excommunicated for Heresy.

Their vaunted scholarship has been window dressing for socialism and social engineering for more than a century.

The Jesuits of South America have been associated with communism and Liberation Theology. When I read that the new pope was a Jesuit from their I knew the Catholic Church was in for a very rough patch.

[MUDDOG]

I knew the Catholic Church was in for a very rough patch.

And you've been proved right.

[Pontiac]

Just another one of many times when I wish I had been wrong.

[Secret Agent Man]

I don’t care what THEY say it is, it IS NOT MARRIAGE.

[mulligan]

Sickness is everywhere.

[Mrs. Don-o]

Unfortunately, it's been a very long time (at least back to 1967) since most 'Catholic" colleges and Universities have required faculty to live, support, or at least refrain from public dissent with refard to Catholic faith and morals.

I'm sure most Catholic universities have divorced/remarried faculty.

[delchiante]

Maybe satan has two sides to his kingdom that will only force to divide it-

A flesh in your face, you can’t help but see it, side-

And a counterfeit righteous religious side (within Judaism, Islam and especially Christianity) that will really take discernment to spot. Like watching a show.

Satan really created ‘religion’ and he owns the secular. A divided Kingdom will not stand, as our Savior said plainly.

And what is tough is to spot the counterfeit righteous because those tares may be really hard to spot until the very end..

“2. Not even Martin Luther went so far as sanctioning homosexuality.”

He might have if he were born in the 20th century, however.

[MUDDOG]

True. As opposed to these gay marriage cases, which are easy to spot.

[LegendHasIt]

Yet another minion of the anti-Christ working for the Catholic Church.

[faithhopecharity]

well, Fordham sure ain’t Catholic no more! that’s for sure..

[Twinkie]

I think you’ve explained the utter impossibility of such a physical reality as “gay” sex. The parts do not fit; & what they do to accommodate it is painful & perverted. I’m at that place where I’m just realizing that some people have just gotten into a nasty, painful habit & expect the rest of us to celebrate it.

[Pollster1]

My neighbor married the family dog in a wedding to entertain her daughter. The difference is no one had to pretend it was real.

[aMorePerfectUnion]

Ping to you after your claim that schools were “cleaned up.”

[BlackElk]

I received a Jesuit prep school education in Connecticut soooo long ago (class of 1964) that the Jebbies were still Catholic and still known as God's Marines. It was only when my senior homeroom teacher (Latin and English and Theology) arrived from Fordham in the New York province that the prep started going downhill morally and politically. The priest in question breezily informed us that we could avoid sexual intercourse with our paramours by substituting oral sex. My parents were not at all pleased to hear this "innovation" in Jesuit moral theology.

I retained enough of my actually Catholic moral formation to regard myself as privileged to represent more than a thousand "criminal" defendants (including Fr. Norman Weslin) in what was, in our state, mislabeled as Operation Rescue. Best work I ever did as a lawyer.

May God bless you and yours.

Not even Martin Luther went so far as sanctioning homosexuality.

“He might have if he were born in the 20th century, however."

Curious as to where you got this idea. I did a search and from what I gathered Luther was not approving of sodomy, clearly marking it as "against nature".

[vladimir998]

Luther approved of bigamy. As a radical who invented his own version of Christianity - one no one had ever heard of before - if he had lived in the 20th century, he probably would gone much further.

[stonehouse01]

Our youngest daughter (rising senior in high school) wanted to go to Fordham and we visited recently. This is very disappointing news about the Jesuits. She really liked Fordham. It is out of our price range anyway, but how awful this is.

Thank you for your work defending the Oepration Rescue defendants.

This is the same order that raised up saints such as Bellarmine and Jogues - this is very upsetting news.

St. Ignatius Loyola ora pro nobis
