Why Do All Jesuit Universities Have Pro-Homosexual Clubs?
How the Homosexual Movement Infiltrates Catholic Colleges and Subverts the Truth
After careful research, a TFP survey discovered that 101 (41%) of Catholic universities and colleges currently list pro-homosexual student clubs on their web sites. Among Jesuit-run universities, the number increases to 100%.
Please respond with prayer and peaceful protest. We must peacefully call for the disbanding of pro-homosexual clubs on Catholic campuses. Sign your e-protest now.

Uncommon Valor
Col. John W. Ripley: Uncommon Valor | Hall of Heroes
This man was a true American.
When a society no longer respects and honors the fighting men willing to shed their blood for its principles, the fault lies not with the fighting men but with society itself. Ingratitude is a subtle vice, but a vice nevertheless. Saint Thomas Aquinas says that a debt of gratitude is a moral debt required by virtue. In recent decades, the American view of moral justice has been sadly lacking.

Planned Parenthood Link at Boston College Vanished After 7,100 Complaints
Thank God, peaceful protest worked again.
TFP Student Action is glad to announce that the Boston College Law School – a Catholic institution – has apparently removed Planned Parenthood from its web site, where it was listed under pro bono organizations.
“The requested URL was not found on this server” is the message that now pops up on the computer screen when access to the Planned Parenthood link is attempted.

Why is the University of Dayton (Catholic) sponsoring a talk by a homosexualist activist?
Read the full story published in the campus newspaper here
Is seems to me that "dialogue" and its predominance over truth is becoming a new religion, and on some Catholic campuses, replacing Catholicism in a frightening way. As long as you throw the term "dialogue" in there, you can do and say just about anything.
We need prayers big time.

Notre Dame Offers Mic to Pro-Homosexual Voice
A discussion panel at Notre Dame had a recent one-sided event sponsored by the ACLU in favor of open homosexuality in the military. After inviting a pro-abortion president to receive honors, I guess anything goes at the University of Notre Dame these days, even the promotion of unnatural vice. What a shame!

St. Joseph’s University Invites Wolves to Scatter Catholic Students with “Unity Week”
St. Joseph’s University Invites Wolves to Attack Fold of Catholic students with “Unity Week”
Moral values are under assault at St. Joseph’s University. Since 2001, the Jesuit university in Philadelphia has been sponsoring Unity Week, a pro-homosexual event first called Rainbow Week.
according to a tentative 2010 Unity Week schedule forwarded to TFP Student Action, the following disturbing activities are planned, beginning on October 31:
A talk by Shawn Decker, a pro-homosexual activist who promotes “safe-sex” and contraception among college students; a talk by “LGBT advocate and policy attorney” Brian Sims, titled Coming Out on the Gridiron; a presentation by the Philadelphia Gay Men’s Chorus, suggestively titled “Brotherly Love;” and a talk by Shiva Subbaraman, director of the LGBTQ Center at Georgetown University.
TFP Student Action invites its members and subscribers to contact the president of St. Joseph’s University and respectfully call for the cancelation of the pro-homosexual Unity Week. Your voice as a student, alumni, or concerned parent or individual is important in the peaceful struggle for moral values.

Georgetown Priest Leads Dissident Catholics for Equality
Georgetown Priest Launches Catholics for Equality | The Hoya
Fr. Joseph Palacios, S.J., adjunct professor of sociology at Georgetown University is one of the leaders of a new pro-homosexual lobby group called "Catholics for Equality," an arm of the Human Rights Campaign to sway Catholics away from fidelity to the Church. The word equality in this context means same-sex "marriage" or unnatural vice. It's oxymoronic for a Catholic priest to promote behavior that is opposed to the very teaching of the Church, but, alas, the times we are living are fraught with contradiction.

Seton Hall University Starts Anti-Catholic Course
Seton Hall University is allowing a pro-homosexual professor to teach about “The Politics of Gay Marriage.”
When plans for the anti-Catholic course were first announced the Most Reverend John J. Myers, Archbishop of Newark, responded. “This proposed course seeks to promote as legitimate a train of thought that is contrary to what the Church teaches. As a result, the course is not in synch with Catholic teaching.”
However, despite the archbishop’s objections the course has started.

Although the local bishop spoke out against it, the course seems to have started yesterday. Thus far, university officials are being rather secretive about divulging any information on this topic.

Georgetown Employees Lead the Way Against Natural Marriage, Catholic Teaching
"Mutiny" is the word representatives of the so-called Catholics for Equality use to explain their offensive against Catholic teaching on homosexuality and Natural Law. It looks like this group is preparing to subvert Church teaching, especially on Catholic university campuses.
Guess where the group found dissident Catholics to oppose God's Law?
Answer: Georgetown University.
Hopefully the U.S. Catholic Bishops will respond promptly before more souls are led astray.

Catholic college contrarians

by Amy Pawlak
I knew, when I graduated from Alverno College in 2004, that it - like most institutions of higher learning - skewed to the left in politics and social agendas. Since I was pretty liberal myself for most of my college years, this didn't bother me then as much as it does now.
So I was saddened - but not surprised - to see that the College's website links to many groups that promote behaviors that are contrary to Catholic teaching, including groups that promote abortion and homosexual behavior. This story sums up the problems, which are not exclusive to Alverno.

Marquette University Blurs Moral Issue
Today, The Wall Street Journal published an interesting commentary regarding the controversy at Marquette University involving their choice of a pro-homosexual "sexuality scholar" as dean, a choice they later backed off from, but which generated heated debate.
The full article is here
The specific nature of the job at issue—as dean Ms. O'Brien would have been charged with helping to implement Ex Corde Ecclesiae, Pope John Paul II's 1990 apostolic constitution intended to revitalize Catholic higher education—may have driven Marquette to back off this particular appointment. But the real story here is that in the upside-down world of Catholic higher education, there is more status in hiring a sexuality scholar who denigrates Catholic teachings on sexuality and marriage than in choosing a serious scholar who might actually support Catholic teachings.

Loyola Marymount Invites Pro-Abortion Commencement Speakers
April 26, 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Loyola Marymount University, a Jesuit institution in Los Angeles, has announced that Deval Patrick, the current governor of Massachusetts, and Marlene Canter, former member of the Los Angeles Unified School District board, will be speaking at their 2010 commencement; both are on record as being in favor of abortion and homosexual “marriage.”
Deval Patrick, who served as Assistant Attorney General during the Clinton administration, worked to prevent a referendum eliminating same-sex “marriage” from coming before the people while governor of Massachusetts. His campaign website boasts that he "helped lead the fight to keep discrimination out of the Massachusetts constitution and preserved the right of same-sex couples to marry in Massachusetts."

Seton Hall Univesity plans same-sex "marriage" course for students
According to an article published by The Setonian on April 15, a course on homosexual “marriage” will be offered next semester at Seton Hall University, a Catholic university in New Jersey with approximately 10,000 students.
Here is the red flag:
The course will be taught by Professor King Mott, a pro-homosexual activist whose biography, posted on Seton Hall’s web site, mentions his affiliation with Lambda Legal, Center for Lesbian and Gay Studies, and Human Rights Campaign -- groups that promote ideas that run contrary to Catholic moral teaching.

Ask Notre Dame to Cancel "Day of Silence" and Other Pro-Homosexual Events
Ask Notre Dame to Cancel "Day of Silence" and Other Pro-Homosexual Events
The dictatorship of relativism is alive at the University of Notre Dame. While the 88 pro-lifers who peacefully prayed on campus during the 2009 commencement fiasco still face charges and possible jail time, the homosexual movement is welcomed.
Sign the petition to the Board of Trustees and Fellows
From April 12-16, Notre Dame plans to host a pro-homosexual "Stand Against Hate Week." According to the promotional flier, the events are being sponsored by various groups, including the Office of the President (Fr. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C.), the Office of Student Affairs, the Core Council for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual & Questioning Students, the Feminist Voice and Campus Ministry.
Why should any Catholic university cater to the homosexual movement's agenda and sow moral confusion among students?

Fla univ denies conservative student group
While Diaz was speaking at the informational meeting David Blank, a university administrator, asked the group to leave the room. Diaz asked Blank for fifteen minutes to finish speaking and Blank politely agreed to allow the group to finish its meeting. Upon hearing Diaz addressing the liberal bias on the FAU campus Blank stopped the meeting again and boorishly ordered the students to vacate the meeting room; shut off the room lights, tore down the group’s promotional posters, and called the campus police.

Video: Stop Planned Parenthood at UDM
It is highly scandalous for a Catholic university to have any ties with Planned Parenthood or to present the largest abortion provider in America as a “career” resource. However, Planned Parenthood and the National Organization for Women (NOW) are currently listed on the web site of the University of Detroit Mercy – a Catholic institution.

Will CPAC 'Big Tent' Survive the Leak? Clip of press conference re "don't ask, don't tell"
| By James Bascom |
| February 24, 2010 |
The Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), held this year on February 18-20 in Washington D.C. is the largest annual conservative conference in the United States, with no fewer than 10,000 intellectuals, politicians, organizations, students and activists in attendance.
It is a window into the heart and soul of the American conservative movement. The issues that are discussed, the speeches that are delivered, the flyers that are distributed, the debates that are held; all hold significant sway over the general direction of the conservative movement and therefore America as a whole.

Planned Parenthood DELETED
 |
The listing was pulled less than 24-hours after the TFP launched its online protest, which generated over 2,500 emails and personal letters urging the president of Rosemont College, Mrs. Sharon Latchaw Hirsh, PhD, to remove the mention of Planned Parenthood.
“It’s a shame the listing was there to begin with, but I’m glad it was quickly taken down,” said TFP Student Action director John Ritchie. “Catholic colleges should be champions of virtue and staunch defenders of innocent life.”
TFP Student Action volunteers are grateful to everyone who participated in this effort.
May God bless you and reward you!

Loss of faith at Catholic colleges
Catholic students who attend Catholic colleges and universities in the US are more likely to move away from the faith than to deepen their commitment, a new study shows.
The study found that 32% of Catholic students at Catholic schools attend Mass less frequently by the time they graduate, while only 7% attend more frequently. Roughly 8% of the graduates reported leaving the Catholic faith during their college years, while students who had entered the Catholic Church during their college years accounted for only 4% of the graduates. The survey found a strong trend away from accord with Church teachings on issues such as abortion and same-sex unions. The new study by Georgetown's Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate (CARA) largely confirms previous reports from the Cardinal Newman Society calling attention to a "crisis in Catholic higher education." “Catholics should be alarmed by the significant declines in Catholic practice and fidelity at many of America’s Catholic institutions,” said Patrick Reilly, the resident of The Cardinal Newman Society. The authors of the CARA report agreed: “Regardless of where students begin their college journey, Catholic colleges should be helping students move closer to Christ, and certainly doing a better job of moving students toward the Catholic faith than secular colleges do.”

Why does Fr. Jenkins refuse to dialogue with pro-lifers?
Father John I. Jenkins, President of the University of Notre Dame, defines himself as a man of dialogue. This is why he invited President Obama to deliver the graduation speech at that Catholic university and granted him the title of Doctor Honoris Causa, in spite of his clearly pro-abortion position.
Dialogue: “acts of courtesy and gestures of respect”

TFP Volunteer Assaulted: Video Clip Tells Story
While TFP Student Action volunteers peacefully rallied support for traditional marriage at the New Jersey Statehouse on January 7, TFP member Elias Bartel, 21, was assaulted by a heavy-set woman wearing a blue “equality” t-shirt who tried to physically wrestle his pro-family sign away from him, interfering with his right to free speech. She left the scene as soon as she saw our camera in operation.

Fr. Jenkins at March for Life Shows No Mercy for 88 Pro-Lifers
Over 19,500 students and parents wrote to Fr. Jenkins of Notre Dame, asking him to drop the charges leveled against 88 pro-lifers who entered campus when Obama was there. Although he attended the annual March for Life on Jan. 22, he has not interceded on behalf of these 88 peaceful pro-lifers who face jail time for praying on ND's campus.

Due to the ever increasing threats against moral values, TFP volunteers often find themselves on the front lines of the Culture War, in the thickest part of the fray – right where they want to be.
Addressing critical issues on college campuses such as abortion, same-sex “marriage,” socialist healthcare reform, and the Notre Dame scandal has kept TFP Student Action extremely busy in 2009.
We offer our readers this brief summary of our 2009 activities and campaigns, trusting that God will inspire more souls to join the spiritual crusade in 2010.

Scandal at Catholic DePaul University - crude V-Monologues play
Send your instant e-protest to the president of DePaul, Fr. Dennis Holtschneider
This update contains disturbing news of a lewd theater play, scheduled for February 13-14 at DePaul University, America’s largest Catholic university with over 25,000 students. For several years, DePaul has hosted the V***** Monologues (asterisks added for modesty).
The play promotes:
The feminist play by Eve Ensler tramples purity, modesty and is degrading to women. It has no place on any Catholic campus. The production is a propaganda piece for pro-abortion, pro-homosexual activists, especially on college campuses.
This is how one student described the play after seeing it:
Join the Protest
I invite you to peacefully protest this offensive production by signing a ready-to-go message to Fr. Dennis Holtschneider, president of DePaul.
Politely ask him to cancel the play
Protests are very effective. In fact, several performances of the V-Monologues were canceled at Catholic colleges in previous years due to the large number of complaints from students, alumni, and concerned Catholics parents. For example, Fr. Brian J. Shanley, president of Providence College, stopped the play on campus in 2006.

This is how one student described the play after seeing it:
"...it was a horrible exhibit of vice, lust, and infidelity. Everything about the play -- the content, the performers, the atmosphere -- was decidedly opposed to just about everything the Church teaches, whether it be about sexuality, abortion, contraception, holy matrimony, modesty, chastity, vulgarity, humility, reverence, you name it."

He stated:
"Doubtless some will reply that this is a violation of artistic freedom. But artistic freedom on a Catholic campus cannot mean the complete license to perform or display any work of art regardless of its intellectual or moral content."As Pope Benedict said in his 2008 visit to the U.S.:
"It is timely, then, to reflect on what is particular to our Catholic institutions. How do they contribute to the good of society through the Church's primary mission of evangelization?"
