Robbie George: Agent of Secularization | National Catholic Reporter

Robbie George: Agent of Secularization | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: MSW, Kaveny and George miss the entire point.  We do not work for the hierarchy.  They work for us.  They can counsel us, but the decision should ultimately be up to the individual school or parish, not the local Ordinary - nor should it be made in fear of the local Ordinary's disapproval.  If either teacher is professing values which make the community uncomfortable, then they might choose firing - or they might use the opportunity to learn tolerance and, gasp, acceptance and tolerance.  THAT would please the Master - not this push to be purer than thou - which would remind our Lord of the Temple Priests.  Sadly it probably reminds Him of His own.
