MGB:_If Jackie was already CUA tenured faculty this is no abuse. Indeed, this kind of job is a pain to have. I am glad she is a willing sacrifice.
I am sure Notre Dame does not teach from the Austrian Hymn book, nor does His Holiness. For the Austrians, only the elites are important. The common worker obeys and scratches out a living. Christ endorses nothing of the sort.
Gay Pride is a good time, but the piercers sometimes show a bit too much skin for polite company. Of course, that may be the point, especially given the horrible impoliteness of the reactionaries who oppose Pride.
Trump and his fascist lackey, Stephen Miller, are beyond redemption and Sessions is no shock. That others would go along with them shows that Nuremberg taught us nothing.
Obama’s blackness is what Trump and the Tea Party exploited. While he could have acted more forcefully on under water mortgages and against Wall Street, getting elected with his constituency requires putting someone who looks like him on the ticket. Please, no more people who get elected like Bill Clinton did. Reforming welfare as we know it was a disaster. No more triangulation or throwing social conservatives a bone.
The Catholic Bishops statement is idiotic. The government is not doing anything to the baker by insisting he treat his customers with dignity. His statement that not baking the cake for religious reasons is as accurate as religion is group dynamics. It was certainly not an expression of faith in God. I expected the artistic excuse to win the case, although Christ would have had him bake a standard wedding cake without the two groom topper (and then officiated). I doubt the baker would have done that either, but we will never know. My statement of faith in this is that the Church will begin celebrating gay weddings.
