GAY TRUTH

A researcher whose university canceled his study of sex-change regret has taken his case to the European Court of Human Rights.  James Caspian, 61, a psychotherapist who had counseled transgender people for a decade, was prevented by England’s Bath Spa University from pursuing a project it had initially accepted: a study entitled “An examination of the experience of people who have undergone Reverse Gender Reassignment Surgery.” A former teacher training college, Bath Spa was not permitted to grant university degrees until 1992.  Supported by the Christian Legal Centre, Caspian first challenged the Bath Spa University’s decision in the British courts . Now he is taking his case to the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR).  “I have been faced with no alternative but to take this case to Europe,” Caspian stated in a press release. “Too much is at stake for academic freedom and for hundreds, if not thousands, of young people who are saying that they are being harmed and often silenced b

The professor forced out by a  Jesuit-run  Catholic university for blogging about an undergrad student being  assailed by his teacher  for his having voiced defence of marriage has won in court. In a landmark decision Friday the Wisconsin Supreme Court said Marquette University violated John McAdams’ right to free speech when it suspended him for writing the blog post, and it ordered the University to restore McAdams immediately with his full rank, tenure, compensation and benefits. “The undisputed facts show that the University breached its contract with Dr McAdams when it suspended him for engaging in activity protected by the contract's guarantee of academic freedom,” court documents say. The Court wrote further that, "we reverse the circuit court and ... order the University to immediately reinstate Dr McAdams with unimpaired rank, tenure, compensation, and benefits."

Amid blasphemy by the chair of New Testament studies at the Jesuit College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Mass ., comes real hope – from the courageous student who exposed the scandal, and from Worcester's Bishop Robert McManus who publicly chastised both the College and the professor. It was student Elinor Reilly (no relation to the Newman Society 's president) who brought attention to the writings of Professor Tat-siong Benny Liew in  her report  in  The Fenwick Review , a faithful and conservative voice at Holy Cross. Liew, she reported, claimed Jesus was a "drag king" with "queer desires." Liew reportedly theorized that Saint John's references to Jesus and water "speak to Jesus' gender indeterminacy and hence his cross-dressing and other queer desires." And there's more… Jesus washing the apostles' feet, was, according to Liew, "suggestive," and "even seductive." "What I am suggestin

A professor ousted by Jesuit -run Marquette University for supporting free speech and academic freedom has promised to appeal a court decision that backed the firing. Dr. John McAdams was suspended in 2014 and fired the next year when he refused to apologize for using his  blog  to expose a graduate student/instructor who wouldn’t allow criticism of same-sex “marriage” in her class. McAdams sued on the grounds the disciplinary process was biased. This week, Judge David Hansher ruled in favor of Marquette. “This is another example of the increasing unwillingness of colleges to stand up for free speech,” commented Dr. McAdams. “Hardly a day passes without an example of a speaker being shouted down, or disinvited, or a student being punished for some innocuous (but politically incorrect) comment on social media.” According to the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty, which supported Dr. McAdams, he plans to appeal.
