Dozens of professors at King’s University College in Ontario, Canada, are outraged over the screening of the pro-life film, 'Unplanned.' The professors believe the screening of the pro-life film will hinder the Catholic school’s efforts to recruit “excellent” students. The school’s principal responded by stating that while professors “do not need to prescribe to the tenets of the Catholic Church,” the Campus Ministry is still allowed to share its belief that life begins at conception.
Over 40 King’s University College professors and faculty members are demanding that the Catholic college apologize for screening pro-life film 'Unplanned' earlier this month, according to a report by LifeSiteNews.
'Unplanned' is a U.S. film about Abby Johnson, a former Planned Parenthood manager who quit her job after watching an abortion on an ultrasound, and has since become a pro-life activist.
In a bizarre letter published on Wednesday, the professors insisted that “the public endorsement of an anti-abortion stance” at King’s University College “is of great concern” and “antithetical” to the Catholic school’s mission statement, as well as obstructing the college’s efforts “to recruit and maintain excellent students, staff, and faculty.”

ReplyDeleteIt's now become a secular school, listening to money talk.
ReplyDeleteGood Grief...what do they think excellent students are just the baby killers. what idiots these people are.
ReplyDeleteI think this is ridiculous. I’m Catholic and went to a Catholic college in the 80s. I cannot even imagine a pro-life stance being “controversial.” If you as a teacher or student at a Catholic or Christian institution can’t even tolerate this message, than you have no business being there! You don’t necessarily have to agree with it....but accept that this view has a place in public conversation. Liberal people are the most intolerant of free speech. It’s ironic and completely egregious.
