This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Post being replied to

I have to ask the question. Was it due to being gay or by usmcirish

being in a marital situation that is totally opposed by the Church? In other words, would a divorced and civilly remarried teacher had issues?

I was public schooled so we didn't have these issues in Catechism/CCD back in the day. Or, we sure had no idea.

I would not have fired either way.

Considering that the Church has such a wonderful record of fine behavior these days in so many areas of morals and ethics. Snark intended.

But, I can see the marriage being more problematic than just the sexual status of the teacher.
