And The List Grows...
Satan infiltrates higher education

Let's put Notre Dame, St. Joseph's and Xavier aside for a moment. The list of "Catholic" schools inviting anti-Catholics continues to grow...

Here's an interesting headline announcement from St Michael's College in Vermont (the Edmundite Order); US Secretary of Education Arne Duncan to be Saint Michael's College Commencement Speaker 2009Is this the same Arne Duncan who pitched the idea of an explicitly gay-friendly school, where half of the students were expected to identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender? Sure is. Does anyone in their right mind really think that celibacy is advocated in Arne's "Social Justice Solidarity High School"? And yes, that's really the proposed name.

Now we come to St. Bonaventure University in New York (Franciscan) who've invited Wolf Blitzer of CNN to be their commencement speaker. The same Wolfie who; (Helmet tip to the good folks over at American Catholic.) ...referred to James Cardinal Stafford's criticism of Barack Obama’s abortion position as a “scathing rant“ and a “diatribe.“ A CNN graphic also used the “scathing rant” term, and Blitzer later referred to the cardinal’s words as a “blistering rant.“Thanks a lot Franciscans. Honor those who foam at the mouth at anyone who would dare question His Obamaness?

Then there's St. Vincent's College in Pennsylvania (Benedictine) who initially invited Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA). Is this the same Bob Casey that supports federal funding for contraceptives, and also supports the legalization of homosexual civil unions? In Casey's own words; “I do support same sex unions that would give gay couples all the rights, privileges and protections of marriage.”Thank God, his invitation was yanked. But why was he invited to begin with? But if you're a big Bob Casey fan, don't sweat it... Holy Cross invited him.
