Students Want Catholic Chaplain Booted from GWU for Following Catholic Doctrine
On homosexuality
Students and parishioners are speaking up for a Catholic priest after two gay students at George Washington University said they want him removed for supporting the Church's stance on homosexual behavior.
"I have never seen Fr. Greg be less than compassionate to any student on an issue of sexuality," Catholic author and speaker Dawn Eden told CNA April 5. "He's been instrumental in helping them to find healing in Christ."

Well, gee, why not try, oh, acupuncture? Homeopathy? Linin' up them ol' chakras!
Got more quacks than ducks to quack 'em!
"after two gay students at George Washington University said they want him removed for supporting the Church's stance on homosexual behavior."
What a sense of entitlement.
I'm an atheist. An antitheist. But I don't quite have the cheek to enroll in a Catholic university and demand they fire everyone "for supporting the Church's stance" on atheism.
I see what you want someone to do there.
