There are good ones out there:
I agree that there are good ones. But anecdotal evidence such as this seems to show that in many Catholic universities, the professors and administration have mostly adopted the principles of the secular culture in place of the Catholic Church. That wouldn’t be worth paying extra just to see the name “Catholic” attached to a university where students may be more likely to lose their Faith than in a secular university.
It then falls to the parents to research the institutions of higher learning, and limit theor choices to those that are truly Catholic.
True, provided the parents elect to pay for their child’s college at all! They might decide to recommend a stint in the USMC, which can provide a pretty good moral formation of its own; following which the GI bill will pay for college!
and this will get worse as more gays are being accepted in Catholic institutions, Church and schools. what do you expect would happen? have we not lost our discernment?
You forgot Christiandom College
I have no problem with homosexuals being accepted in Catholic institutions. What I have a problem with is the teaching of the homosexual lifestyle at a Catholic institution with open arms. There is a difference that needs to be distinguished here.
well if you have no problem with them entering the CC institutions, then you should not have a problem to what they are advocating for. what do you think they are going to do?
I didn’t so much as “forget” as it just didn’t dome to mind when I was rattling them off. It was not meant to be a comprehensive list.
A comprehensive list of “Catholic” universities that are loyal to the Magisterium wouldn’t take that long to rattle off.
The point is I was doing it off the top of my head. Any particular reason for the criticism? Is it because I failed to mention your personal favorite?
No, not even criticism. Sorry you are seeing it that way.
Good point.
Even better would be an orthodox homosexual living a chaste life as to show the reasonableness of the Church’s position.Good point.
In the interest of “fairness,” they should have a corresponding class by a heterosexual Orthodox Catholic male explaining calmly and rationally Church teaching and its stand on Homosexuality.Of course, that will not happen, but it would be the “right” thing to do.
Ultimately this is an attempt by the Academia of a particular Catholic University to be “relevant” and “with the times.”
Good idea, that one. Should have thought of myself…
