Some Professors at Catholic Universities Applaud DOMA Ruling

The Cardinal Newman Society’s Catholic Education Daily has posted a round-up of positive reactions to the Supreme Court’s DOMA ruling from professors at Catholic universities, educators who apparently support the ruling and seek greater advocacy:

Doug NeJaime of Loyola School of Law in Los Angeles, which is affiliated with Loyola Marymount University, commented … “It’s two big steps forward for the same-sex marriage cause.”

… Elizabeth Cooper of the Fordham University School of Law gave hope to activists in her comment  …

” … Although the court declined to address the question of whether same-sex couples have a constitutional right to marry in Perry, that question will one day come squarely before the court and it will answer in the affirmative.” …

… Fordham political science professor Robert Hume laid out a post-ruling strategy for same-sex marriage activists …

“… The state constitutional amendments that washed over the country in the past decade can be washed away just as quickly, as LGBT public interest groups take advantage of initiative amendment procedures that have previously worked to oppress them. With public opinion now shifting, it is time to turn the tide. …”

Thomas Bushlack, assistant professor of moral theology at the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota, took … a swipe at the Catholic Church …

“… it is becoming increasingly apparent to most (though not all) Christians that homosexuality and same-sex marriage is not a central concern of the Gospel itself. The biblical references in Leviticus and Romans are ambiguous at best, and a natural law argument that can cut both ways has not created consensus on this issue.”
