Secular Fundamentalism will tolerate no dissent. The latest example of secular fundamentalist intolerance is the firing of a professor at the Univeristy of Illinois. His “crime” was to explain the Catholic Church’s teaching on homosexuality in a class on “Catholicism and Catholic Thought”. Even explaining the Church’s teaching on moral issues now constitutes a “hate crime” according to the University of Illinois. Any other comment about such totalitarianism would be superfluous.

I wish I could say that this man’s firing is the exception rather than the rule. What usually happens, however, is that the teacher is privately reprimanded/cautioned, instructed to recant/apologize, and he usually does. He has a family to feed, a mortgage to pay. Happens all the time….
