"DePaul University is the first Catholic [ha, ha, HA!] university in America to offer [a] queer studies minor"

So no!

San Antonio
's OLLU & Assumption Seminary's so - called American Catholic theology courses really are not all that unique! :) x 12


Mary McWay Seaman on Anne Hendershott's academic blockbuster:

Status Envy: The Politics of Catholic Higher Education.



The original book review is in the combined July - August issue of the New Oxford Review, pages 45 - 46.

"A good portion of Hendershott's book details intellectual pluralism's romp through theology courses.

"If Catholics think that elements of numerology, witchcraft, Kabbalah, astrology, Buddhism, radical feminism, and Marxism are absent from theology courses on Catholic campuses, they should think again.

"Hendershott's study of radical feminist theologians on Catholic campuses highlights their claim that Jesus inaugurated a proto - feminist movement that venerated female leaders like Mary Magdalene.

"The radicals vilify St. Paul as a sexist and a homophobe, and their alternative feminst canon approves abortion, same - sex marriage, and women priests.

"DePaul University, cited as one of the Top 100 Best Campuses for homosexual students, is the first Catholic university in America to offer the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered, and queer studies minor.

"Hendershott sees such gay campus cultures and the clergy sex - abuse crisis as decimating Church authority: While the issue of homosexuality has taken on a life of its own on Catholic campuses and within seminaries and parish rectories ... it is simply a symptom of a much bigger problem. The real problem is the failure to recognize that there are indeed rules -- and a natural law basis for such rules ..."

'Way to go, good people!


"There are indeed rules -- and a natural law basis for such rules..."


Like maybe, humm .. how about this?
