Father Frank Pavone (CNS)

The University of Notre Dame’s 2009 commencement speaker: President Barack Obama, one of the most powerful proponents of abortion in the history of the American Republic.

The recipient of Christendom College’s Pro Deo et Patria Medal for Distinguished Service to God and Country, to be awarded at Christendom’s 2009 commencement: Priests for Life founder Father Frank Pavone, one of the most dedicated defenders of unborn human life in the history of the American Republic.

It’s quite a contrast, isn’t it?

And it’s the sort of stark contrast that will remain burned into the memory of Catholic parents of prospective college students, as those parents consider which Catholic universities can be relied upon to provide a suitable environment for the higher education of the children who have been entrusted to their care by God.

Barack Obama trip to Notre dame was a day at the beach when you compare Notre Dame leadership in the Land of Lake policy .Catholic Colleges decided they don’t have to teach the Magisterium of the church

Or the appointment the past president of Notre Dame set up with Paul VI, prior Humane Vitae, with David Rockefeller who pressured the Pope to allow contraception.

Or the way past president of Notre Dame gave rock star treatment of Mario Cuomo and his abortion rhetoric in the eightys

Or the fact the Virginal Chronicles has been playing at the university (not in a Class setting but in an open theater setting) for over a decade

Notre Dame has been described at a Public school in a Catholic Neighborhood
