Just days ago, a Boston third-grader's admission to a Catholic school was rescinded – solely because his parents are lesbians.

But here's the worst part – this is no isolated incident. Just a few months ago, a Catholic elementary school in Colorado expelled two preschoolers (that's right, preschoolers) for the same reason.

That's a bunch of bullshit.

I hope they also expelled the children with divorced parents, children who were born out of wedlock, and children with mother's who use birth control.

I solemnly swear I am up to no good.

yeah, that's BS, but not surprising. and technically they're allowed because it's a private school /:

Wow. That's ridiculous. I go to a private, Catholic high school and nothing like that happens. Though...it's Minnesota..."Minnesota Nice". Though I have heard of children that have gotten their art projects destroyed by teachers for having same sex parents (not at my school, at elementary schools).

Wow

I went to catholic school for most of my life and we never had anything like this happen.
We had kids who didn't have dads or lived with their grandparents and kids like me who where mentally unstable but hey as long as there's no kids of gays.
It makes me sad that things like this happen. Honestly catholic school was fun for me and it's not as pure as they make it out to be~ there where girls making out in the restrooms and I recently discovered that one of my old class mates beat up a kid so bad that one of the guy's eyes doesn't work anymore. my old classmate's going to jail now. He went to catholic school the purest establishment in the world! how could this happen!?!? It makes me feel kinda embarrassed sometimes that my religion is still so ignorant I mean honestly would Jesus be all like "Hey your gay...I hate you" (not a religious question)

What you guys have two realize that there are conservatives and liberals within the Catholic church/schools ... I have priest that condemn homosexuals while I have priest that have openly gay friends ... though this is some bullshit ... do not punish the child becuase of the parents ... and don't punish the parents ... they didn't do anything wrong ... what do they expect ... that one child is a demon and will corrupt everyone else ... it is complete bullshit ...
