Keystone, funny I agree with you on some kids needing discipline. I mean I'd go into an A-Plus and you don't know how many kids your age, if not younger ask me to buy them Blunts, papers, cigarettes, or alcohol and this is on school nights. If I were to come in drunk and or high on a school night, my dad would beat the sh**t out of me. Yes, even in 1st Track you had some wise asses try to mess with the teacher and sometimes, the teacher would actually bend. There were times even I felt some of these clowns deserved a well placed boot up their asses.
Not saying the Catholic schools are "All GOP, all the time", but if I were to say become a Congressman, my pro-choice stances would make it VERY difficult for me to get a speaking slot at my alma mater. You'll love this Phil.. My own great uncle, a prominent North alum, actually led an effort to block former Sen. John Heinz from speaking there due to his pro-choice stances back in 1980.
Well I believe that if you're clearly out of step with a Church position then the Church has every reason to not allow you to speak. However, I disagree with the denying of Communion way of dealing with the issue.
So you would agree that the church has every reason not to let you speak because of your position on the death penalty
