Given their insistence that the boys not play sports against girls, the Our Lady of Sorrows should not have been allowed to field an intermural baseball team in the first place.  And, they need to give serious thought to withdrawing all their sports teams from intermural play. Talkin’ from football to golf team –even the debate team! All should be barred from any league play.  There’s always the chance they’d play against a mixed-gender team and need to forfeit.  That’s disruptive and not fair to the other team.  The whole idea behind intermural sports is to play – not use it for a venue for flaunting one’s beliefs.

 

They also should recognize that the young lady benched herself –twice!- to respect their beliefs.  I’m sure that went against her beliefs.  Certainly that requires them to bend some as well.

 My 2 cents.

Irene.

Excellent points Irene

He invoked the Constitution, not civil law. He did so in an attempt to say that someone cannot disagree with, and voice that opinion, when someone believes something differently. He was actually trying to stifle my freedom of speech.

So, the Bill of Rights does not supercede "civil law?" Now, you're really not making any sense. By that standard, my town council could forbid women from voting, or even going out of the house unescorted.

Nobody is trying to stifle your freedom of speech. I'm just calling you on your jaw-dropping B.S.

If that's what you want to believe. Thanks for sharing.

You're welcome.

Hope you're having a good weekend, btw.
