Catholic Comment, a team of lay people who speak about the Catholic faith in the media were troubled by what they perceive to be a worrying threat to Catholic schools if the forthcoming referendum on same-sex marriage is passed.
Speaking to presenter Seán O’Rourke on RTÉ Radio, Enda Kenny said that, if the referendum passes, Catholic schools “will be expected to teach children that people in this country, in Ireland, in 2016, will have the right to get married irrespective of their sexual orientation”.
Petra Conroy from Catholic Comment spoke about how this would be very troubling for Catholic Schools.
