Column on Gay Parents Controversy

A Boston Catholic paper is apologizing for a column that has stirred gay rights advocates by linking same-sex parents with pornography. Michael Pakaluk, writing in The Pilot says one reason the children of gay parents should not be admitted to Catholic schools is the danger they would pose of bringing pornography into school. He once taught philosophy at Clark University in Worcester and served as a visiting scholar at Harvard. He now teaches in Virginia. Pakaluk has told reporters he would not make the same point if he were writing the article again. Read the column here.

Pakaluk's column reminds us usefully of the facts that:
1. Conservative Roman Catholics have an astonishing number of vicious, hateful and ridiculously fabricated opinions on almost everything, and that
2. They haven't the slightest hesitation on letting us know what these are.
Such is the nature of religion: people are evidently capable of believing anything at all.
