  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., is investigating the vandalism of Catholic symbols on campus as a potential “hate crime” as the widespread targeting of Catholic institutions continues to raise concerns.

In an Aug. 30 letter to students and staff, Georgetown Associate Vice President of Public Safety Jay Gruber and Vice President for Mission & Ministry Rev. Mark Bosco informed the campus community that they were investigating vandalism of Catholic symbols at the Jesuit educational institution.

Specifically, they mentioned that the “large processional crucifix in the Dahlgren Chapel of the Sacred Heart was inappropriately moved and sustained damage after being placed against the door.”
