"Catholics in hysterics as boy with gay parents allowed to enroll in school. Superintendent says he could kick kid out but kids whose parents were divorced, used birth control, or married outside church would have to go with him" - Fark

COSTA MESA, Calif. — Some parents and parishioners have accused the Roman Catholic diocese in Orange County of violating church doctrine by allowing a gay couple to enroll their children in a church school.

The group demanded that St. John the Baptist School in Costa Mesa accept only families that pledge to abide by Catholic teachings, the Los Angeles Times reported in Sunday's editions. Church doctrine opposes gay relationships and adoption by same-sex couples.

"The teachings of the church seem to have been abandoned," John R. Nixon told the Times. "We send our children to a Catholic school because we expect and demand that the teachings of our church will be adhered to."

School officials rejected the demand, and issued a new policy stating that a family's background "does not constitute an absolute obstacle to enrollment in the school."

Please cut down on this type of post. I know you are just joking around and it is ok to mock each other every once and a while, but this is getting rather annoying for me even.

Actually, I am probably the last person that should tell you to lay off the insults. But for poor Kurtis, and the HUGE community in which we post, I hope you understand :-P
