The degree of ignorance of those that clearly hate the Catholic Church is not surprising, it's the common theme of the history of those who hate the Catholic Church.
There are not over a 100 people in the U.S. that hate the Catholic Church, there are millions however, who hate what they wrongly believe to be the Catholic Church, which is, of course, quite a different thing." - Archbishop Fulton Sheen

Jack P of XX you're the ignoramous sir! Where is you ample HARD evidence to prove that condom usage exacerbates the HIV problem? You're just a little conceited calling the Catholic Church "Christ's Church" we're taught as catholics that it's the only religion but then that's what the Jews, Islam, Hindus and other religions all proport, so you have refutable evidence to back this up? You have a nerve say that "Obama is the world's leading anti-human-rights extremist" considering OUR pope was a member of the Nazi youth during the war. So before taking pot shots at everyone else and being so sure of yourself, look back at OUR history, the Spanish Inquisition wasn't very pretty. The Catholic Church didn't do anything about contradicting the Nazis during the war in fact they were complicit. Yes, I'm Catholic and yes there were many of our priests who are pedophiles (and I'm not talking gay or straight here). As you know too many priest preach politics from their pulpits. The Church does not tolerate women as priests. Frankly, you're the one talking without knowing what it is you're talking about. However, there are many moderates in the religion who are tolerant and free thinking. The word Catholic has pretty much the same meaning as communist as well.

One thing this controvesity has done is get all the anti Catholic bigots slithering out from under their rocks.

It is the height of hubris that an international organisation which sheltered the perverts who raped our children should assume that it has moral authority over anyone.
So far as I am concerned the pope has earned ridicule. A person would have to have a very short memory to take pronouncements from such a source seriously.
Card. Law was whisked out of this country into Italy, no longer being available to do penance for his part in that blasphemy. Send Law back to us, pope! Doesn't the church preach confession and responsibility? If we are capable of paying for our sins, but refuse, our repentance is not recognised, no? Or, is that just a 'special' teaching for the laity?

So much ignorance here. It's astonishing that so many say so much about Christ's Church without checking your assertions for accuracy.
Obama is the world's leading anti-human-rights extremist. CAtholicism is almost irrelevant to the issue. MAss murder of innocent defenseless citizens wrapped in lies are fundamental issues that transcend politics or religious affiliation.
Condoms do exacerbate the AIDS Problem. There is ample hard evidence to support that. All you have to do is look beyond the payola'd media drivel on teh subject.
Fact check first. Otherwise you do not deserve your paycheque.

The 95% of reality-based Catholics don't give a rat's behind what the sore loser conservative nutzoid bubble-dwellers are planning for their latest media stunt. Whatever the scandal du jour, it always boils down to the same thing--political partisanship cloaked in moral outrage. Furthermore, Notre Dame will not be losing one iota of business from the Catholic community at large. Those who are supposedly outraged over this manufactured "scandal" would never send their kids to ND anyway--assuming they could even get accepted. They would have their kids at Steubenville, Christendom, anyplace where dialogue and diverse opinions are not welcome.

Since when did it become a crime to speak the truth? Catholics need to start cleaning their own houses well before slamming those they wish to discredit. Oh how high, might and so pious (?) we are. It makes me want to gag. Sure is a good thing we have that great old Sacrament called Confession. Where, oh where would we be (including our Pope) without it?

Since being politically correct is so important today, how about religiously correct? The college's President I feel will be short lived and did not really think this through. Follow the money people...either ND will have to do some restructuring or a lot of money will stop flowing in. Matt of Va., your absolutely right, thanks for updating many Americans the truth as HIV takes no prisoners. It's a shame that ND was thrust into this polarization of political beliefs. It's a fine school but the memory of this scandal will thrive in the minds of many Catholic parents when they try to decide where to send their graduates.
