Some Catholic bishops are a bunch of hypocrite. They stand in front of you telling you to love your enemies as you love yourself but they lack compassion for gays. I am catholic myself, I believe in God but I questioned my catholic faith because of bishops like this.
go to a community school
disgusting money mongering homophobic catholic church hierarchy finally getting some pushback. and I don't think it's an accident that the jesuit priest said they were going to be the "template" for the future of the church. Jesuits=Knights Templar
Gracias saludos cordiales paz bien verdad justicia,no corrupción delincuentes jamás!!
Just another nail in the 'Coffin' for Catholicism!
Ridiculous and very unnecessary…….The teacher stay…..child abusers out……
First
I'm so glad they stood by that teacher!
Agree
We all knew some of the priest are gay
So when is same sex marriage a crime? Who are they hurting?
God bless the Bishop! We need to pray for the reconversion of Father Martin and the Jesuit order!
The church has no MORAL AUTHORITY, to demand such a thing
If you dont agree to their teachings dont work there.
Those Catholic kid fuckers and enablers need to look in the mirror before they judge others.
Two consenting ADULTS and they have a problem with that but do NOTHING when it involves children, their hypocrisy is sickening.
With all of the same sex abuse going on in the Catholic Church this is like the Colonel demanding that all KFCs stop selling chicken! WTF!
Hey Archdiocese, join the 21st Century already!
Good for the school!!!
I wonder why people are always obsessed with doing something so wrong as if its right…
👎😕Reporter didn't make an effort to speak to those agreeing with Archdiocese to fire the teacher who was in violation of Catholic ⛪ teaching. ABC 💩👃😲😷
Um, ABC, you're missing the word "marriage" in your title. The way the title is now, it sounds like teacher and student are the same gender.
Peace be unto you…
Christianity forbids same-sex marriage and relationships…
To change the Sacred Laws of our One and Only Creator God Almighty is a great sin; being politically correct does not equal forgiveness for a sin…
Religious Laws can not be changed to suit the egotistical, greedy, vain desires of human beings…
The school is now illegitimate as a religious institution and has chosen to become a secular educational institution…
There is a fine line here with emotionally-based opinions…
May our One and Only Creator God Almighty Bless us all with Steadfastness and Patience and Endurance and Ease
Summa Amin…
With Peace Sakinah 🌹
Not know the full details about the situation, I can only pull from experience. A local catholic school to my undergrad university had a gay teacher. They knew he was gay, but hired him anyway. The only stipulation was that he did not get married to his boyfriend while he was a teacher.
He did just that over spring break, so he was fired. It was his choice to accept this stipulation then to break it.
With this Jesuit school, however, I do not believe the same was the case. The school supporting the teacher tell me that the teacher was such a good person and teacher that his sexual orientation had no bearing.
Further, I believe this further demonstrates there is division within the church between the younger, more accepting priests and the older … not so pious (or maybe self righteous? I can't quite articulate the correct descriptors at the moment. ) faction of the church. Hasn't anyone else noticed it is lecherous old men doing the most unholy acts, or so it seems by the images of the priests presented in the news?
Why would it say same sex teacher? What the fuck is a same sex teacher? Why wouldn't it say gay?
They should just tell the higher ups that he moments later boys. Then they'll keep him and bump up his pay

why do religion schools exist at this point
Fuck these pedo priests
I am happy to see the archdiocese doing what his position calls for. It's not a Catholic school when staff break the laws of God. These are private institutions and have every right to keep strick rules and make sure everyone abide by them. This school and teacher has made a grave mistake. No more funding means no more school. No true status with the church means no true Catholics bring thier children to be taught there. So yea no more money, they all lose Thier jobs. The church will open another school kids and teachers eligible will transfer. As for this fake Priest at the end. Do your research he is not with the church but has a bogus online certificate. Never actually trained, taught, or been granted status in the church. As for appealing that's not how the church works. It's a court house, it's the house of God, what the archdiocese says goes, there is no "jumping the gate" or "skipping a step" by trying to go over the head of the archdiocese. Fucking morons. We been keeping our community together for years. A few years from now the school will go up for sale an we will move back in. The teacher should do the right thing and go teach where his life style is compatible with the other abominations like him.
Twisted people rejecting twisted people.
So the church is saying that you can be of a homosexual orientation but you just can't practice homosexuality to teach at the school? How is that an argument?
