Archdiocese of Cinncinatti Tries to further Knock up Gay Pregnant Teacher, Adding Insult to Injury by Tossing Her and her Love Child out into the streets

Archbishops Daniel Pilarczyk and Dennis Schnurr of Cincinnatti Ohio, (w/ hands in pockets) explain important new changes in the Third Edition of the Roman Missal in 2010 on You Tube (below)

All life is sacred except when it begins via artificial insemination and with unmarried Hispanic gay females.

No, Archbishop Schnurr is not trying to get into a female teacher’s pants (the catholic god forbid). But fresh from a stint of duty in Snickerdoodle land, Duluth Minnesota, also made famous by alleged coffin sex with consenting adult age seminarians (i.e. Bishop Brom “the vampire” in San Diego Calif. and or mentor of Sally Cordileone) – Archbishop Schnurr’s catholic school system wants to discriminate against female teachers who want to create life in a modern scientific method and maintain the right (far right) – yelling “Religious Liberty” and or “Frankenstein Monster”.

(BTW, Ms. Dias is also “Homosexual” - ya know, that sexual thingy and "Shhh!" that they don't know how to talk about it.)

Trying to pull the Religious minister’s loophole clause that the Catholic Supreme Court of the United States says is okay to fire any church employee for any cause or petty prejudice, a pregnant teacher who got fired and probably lost her health insurance just as she needed it, being pregnant and all that, was rewarded by a jury of her peers (human beings and not church clerics) $170,000 for discrimination.

CINCINNATI (AP) — A jury found an Ohio archdiocese discriminated against a teacher fired after becoming pregnant via artificial insemination, leaving legal experts expecting an appeal they say could have a much wider legal impact. 

 Christa Dias (what a lovely name), who was fired from two schools in the Archdiocese of Cincinnati in October 2010, was awarded more than $170,000 Monday after winning her federal anti-discrimination lawsuit against the archdiocese. 

 Dias' attorney, Robert Klingler, argued she was fired simply because she was pregnant and unmarried, a dismissal he said violated state and federal law. 

 Steven Goodwin, the attorney for the archdiocese and the schools, contended Dias was fired for violating her contract, which he said required her to comply with the philosophies and teachings of the Catholic church. The church considers artificial insemination immoral and a violation of church doctrine.

God the Creator Liberator and Sustainer of Life

Just got my little care package from Father Peter Kennedy’s true faith church on the Internet. I thought maybe they forgot me and were not sending out anymore care packages into the big ugly world anymore. I thought that this Christian church had failed in the face of opposition and pressure from the big organized RC Institution. Actually, the message ended up in my spam queue and I had not checked there lately.

If this was the early Christian Church and I was someone who could read and write I would be standing on my doorstep reading parts of a letter, a letter from Father Kennedy. Later I just might be giving a synopsis of the letter as a story with the letter itself and with the accumulated stories in general of true Apostles of Jesus such as Fathers Kennedy and Fitzpatrick preaching the Good News in Brisbane, Oz.

Sorry I can’t You Tube a few minutes of the Father Kennedy’s sermon. The text of the sermons are usually a few weeks behind in transcription. Father Kennedy was talking about the Theology of Anxiety as described by some author. The gist of the message was that the Big Organized Church is an Institution of Compromise – one where the fear of the devil exceeds the Love of God. This conforms with my minimalist view that fundamentalism and the big ritual institutions – love the Book – Love the Rule Book – more than they love God or God’s creation man and woman.

St Mary's Catholic Community in EXILE

I invite you if you have ten to fifteen minutes to listen and watch a video of his sermon on their site. Have to confess that I don’t always watch every minute of the service. I am not a member in good standing of that far away community. ((sorry, video no longer available - 24 nov 2011))

Father Kennedy’s sermon led into a baptism of a little girl Jesse conducted by Father Terry. I was most impressed with the casualness and the informality of it all as evidenced by lay participation. I was impressed that the child had three godmothers ( one can never have enough godmothers ) and a godfather who managed to miss the service.

The words of baptism are the Politically Incorrect Words that got Father Kennedy and his parish in trouble. The child of God Jesse Thomas was baptized in the name of God the Creator, Liberator, and Sustainer of Life (for centuries referred to as Father, Son, Holy Spirit).

Along with many healthy shoots taking root in the soil of life everywhere redefining the original and blessed message of Jesus, Saint Mary’s in Exile is still alive, well and thriving six months into a journey full of grace.
