PETITION: Ask local Bishop to correct and admonish Notre Dame's promotion of homosexual 'pride' month

The University of Notre Dame is promoting so-called homosexual 'pride' month on an official university webpage, complete with a guide on how to become an "ally" of LGBT activists.

But, such homosexual 'pride' events and "allying" should be avoided by Catholics as they seek to normalize both grave sin and disorder, as well as the destruction of the natural family and marriage between one man and one woman.

Please read the passages of the Catechism of the Catholic Church, below, where it very clearly states that:

"...'homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered.' They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved."

Then, please SIGN this urgent petition, asking the Bishop of Fort Wayne-South Bend (the diocese in which Notre Dame is located), Bishop Rhoades, to formally correct the University in this matter.

This petition is also CC'ed to the University asking them to stop promoting the homosexual 'pride' agenda.

If anyone has ever seen the some of degrading things done at so-called 'pride' events in the name of sexual license, you understand how dangerous these events can be to children's innocence and understanding of human nature, nevermind that of the adult participants!

Indeed, the danger to the Faith and morals are so serious that, two years ago, the Bishop of Rhode Island gave this stark warning to his flock: "A reminder that Catholics should not support or attend LGBTQ “Pride Month” events held in June. They promote a culture and encourage activities that are contrary to Catholic faith and morals. They are especially harmful for children."

Please now SIGN and SHARE this petition which asks his brother bishop in Indiana, Bishops Rhoades, to formally admonish the University of Notre Dame from the promotion of these events which are contrary to the Faith and morals.

What the Catechism of the Catholic Church says on homosexuality (quoted here):

2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity,141 tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered."142 They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.

2358 The number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible. This inclination, which is objectively disordered, constitutes for most of them a trial. They must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided. These persons are called to fulfill God's will in their lives and, if they are Christians, to unite to the sacrifice of the Lord's Cross the difficulties they may encounter from their condition.

2359 Homosexual persons are called to chastity. By the virtues of self-mastery that teach them inner freedom, at times by the support of disinterested friendship, by prayer and sacramental grace, they can and should gradually and resolutely approach Christian perfection.
