    Can't she file some discrimination claim?

    I went to a catholic school that had this kind of thing written right in their mission statement next to race and all that other shit. What are they thinking?

    At least Rachel is the bigger person here actually practicing Christian values instead of discriminating & refusing to respond & explain it. She took the higher road & refused to badmouth them, which I'm sure no one at that school even appreciated anyway. This is one of the bog reasons I'm a recovering Catholic, sometimes there's just so much hypocrisy & intolerance in Christianity masquerading as faith and piety.

    I find this especially ironic. Scroll to about the midpoint to see her story.

    Anyways, its great that she left. Its up to us (GLBT community) to associate ourselves with people that don't drag us down. A more excepting school will be more benificial to this girl.
