Bishop Blasts Misericordia for Guest Speaker
Bishop Blasts Misericordia for Guest Speaker - Monday, February 16, 2009 at 11:45PM EST
DALLAS, LUZERNE COUNTY- The campus of Misericordia University is buzzing after Bishop Joseph Martino blasted a guest speaker. The school invited Keith Boykin to campus. Boykin has written on homosexuality.
Martino says the author's beliefs are "disturbingly opposed to catholic moral teaching."
Misericordia has issued a response to Bishop Martino, saying:
"Misericordia University is committed deeply to its Catholic mission. Inseparable from that mission is our identity as an academic institution where ideas and positions are explored critically and freely." | |
