She was fired because she refused to denounce her academic thesis. Obviously, the RC Church's apology to Galileo was bogus.Elizabeth Kaetonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06787552280232329081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-75898520661884294602009-03-27T18:53:00.000-04:002009-03-27T18:53:00.000-04:00If the EWC wants to "stand with Ruth Kolpack," may...If the EWC wants to "stand with Ruth Kolpack," maybe they should help her find a job at an Episcopal church. <BR/><BR/>I agree that she needed to be fired from St. Thomas, because she refused to pledge to do the job she was hired to do. But I also hope she finds a new job soon. Perhaps the Episcopal church is a better fit.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07020281268075311127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-13484269325527569132009-03-23T12:28:00.000-04:002009-03-23T12:28:00.000-04:00Signed, of course.The RC's stood with us when we b...Signed, of course.<BR/><BR/>The RC's stood with us when we began ordaining women in '77. It is time to stand with them in this reactionary time. This is what +Spong calls the last gasp of patriarchy.<BR/><BR/>The really funny part of all of this is that if he had just been quiet about it, Ruth's message would have been quite contained. Ain't always so. When the righteous are marytered, their story is what is remembered.Muthah+https://www.blogger.com/profile/10589837671378205837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-35706687062325579302009-03-22T13:47:00.000-04:002009-03-22T13:47:00.000-04:00THANK YOU to everyone who signed or will sign.THANK YOU to everyone who signed or will sign.Elizabeth Kaetonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06787552280232329081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-39673149783990207392009-03-22T12:37:00.000-04:002009-03-22T12:37:00.000-04:00Signed.Signed.Göran Koch-Swahnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00925549945659350649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-62466352801486144232009-03-22T04:46:00.000-04:002009-03-22T04:46:00.000-04:00Send Ruth our love and respect!Send Ruth our love and respect!Göran Koch-Swahnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00925549945659350649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29373297.post-39869589947033480982009-03-21T22:40:00.000-04:002009-03-21T22:40:00.000-04:00Unfortunately, IT, the RC hierarchy doesn't think ...Unfortunately, IT, the RC hierarchy doesn't think it needs to learn anything.
