Correction on my last reply to Theodoric: The article was from Salon.com. I am going back and reading what I initially read to see where the differing stories of what actually happened came from.

Do you know the origin and position of the Society of Jesus, that they are Conservative, that they were formed during the period called the counter-reformation; that they opposed the liberalism that was the Reformation?
Do you know what the term "conservative" means?Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

I will let my developmentally disabled son know that calling people retards is an acceptable way to insult people.
You are as foul and offensive as Ms. Coulter is.Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts "God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

It will be an easy job for me to show you the hateful rhetoric. So that would be a no. No is much easier to type so you should have just gone with that. You are just parroting again. If you provided some support for your assertions, someone might actually take a look at them. Until then you are just parroting wing nut crap.Facts don't lie or have an agenda.

Here is the article in question. I was right Theodoric. I just didn't read all the way down to the end of the article. It is extremely hard reading socialist pablum like the writer of this hateful article. I don't know if they just added the latest update between the time I first looked at the article and now, or if it was there and I just didn't read all the way down to it. The whole point of what I said was absolutely correct though. It was the president of the college who loudly protested the invitation from the republican club at the college. It was this protest that prompted the club to retract the invitation. Who wants to irritate the dean of the college unnecessarily?

I happen to love Fordham University. My daughter got a great education there. As president of the College Democrats, she worked well with College Republicans. I met a whole lot of them when they politely turned out the night she helped bring Howard Dean to campus; the next year, she got to moderate a question-and-answer session — to ensure fairness — when the College Republicans hosted Karl Rove. It felt to me like a lost era of civility and reason as I watched young people from the two parties get along up in the Bronx. But now the Fordham College Republicans have invited Ann Coulter, who outdoes Karl Rove (barely, these days) in the department of divisiveness and meanness. I had a moment of regretting the mega-dollars I spent on Fordham — even though I know the clubs are free to invite whomever they like, within reason (although this tests reason). Then I saw Fordham President Father Joseph McShane’s terrific reply, which I’m printing in full. Given the dramatic rightward shift of the Republican Party, I happen to believe that the path back to civility involves civil people not merely smiling and being civil but forcefully calling extremist Republicans out on their cruelty and extremism. Father McShane shows the way. He blasts Coulter’s message as hateful and needlessly provocative more heat than light and says her message is aimed squarely at the darker side of our nature. McShane notes that Fordham has been blighted by ugly racial and homophobic incidents in the last few years, and he laments the lack of maturity shown by his young campus Republicans in inviting the provocateur Coulter. But he says he trusts the Fordham community to model the power of decency and reason to overcome hatred and prejudice. Let’s hope that happens. Personally, I hope Coulter reads McShane’s statement, withdraws from the engagement and spends some time reflecting on why she’s filled with so much hate. But I’m a dreamer. Update: Tonight, the Fordham College Republicans have cancelled Coulter’s appearance.

The Jesuits are conservative when it suits their agenda and liberal when it suits their agenda, and their agenda is to overthrow the Protestant Reformation and bring the whole world under the Pope, also bring back the Inquisition to torture and murder everyone they call a "heretic." How they run a college depends on what's going to serve those interests best.

I assume that you have evidence to support your assertions that they want to bring back the Inquisition to torture and murder everyone they call a "heretic."
If not, then it's just another example of an unsupported assertion from the CCoI.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Yes, indeed -- very far to the radical right.

You need to break out of that protective fundamentalist bubble, and learn how to actually read.It is extremely hard reading socialist pablum like the writer of this hateful article. What you quoted above was said by a journalist, not by Fordham. If you read further down, you can find what Fordham said.

Here is the article in question. I was right Theodoric.
How were you right? you claimed that Fordham banned Coulter from speaking there:
It isn't any wonder then when colleges like Fordham University ban Coulter from speaking at their campuses. It is quite clear from the article that she was not banned.God separated the races and attempting to mix them is like attempting to mix water with diesel fuel.- Buzsaw Message 177 It's not enough to bash in heads, you've got to bash in mindssoon I discovered that this rock thing was true Jerry Lee Lewis was the devil Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet All of a sudden i found myself in love with the world And so there was only one thing I could do Was ding a ding dang my dang along ling long - Jesus Built my Hotrod Ministry Live every week like it's Shark Week! - Tracey Jordan Just a monkey in a long line of kings. - Matthew Good If "elitist" just means "not the dumbest motherfucker in the room", I'll be an elitist! - Get Your War On *not an actual doctor

Jesuits are very liberal people.
Again just another empty assertion that you will provide no evidence for. Chock up Catholicism as another subject you know nothing about.
Anything that is right of pure marxism is conservative in your eyes it appears.
As I said before a nice introductory course in PoliSci will do you wonders.
All I did was summarize my understanding of it.
Your comprehension skills are atrocious. No where does the article, or any article, state that she was banned. Maybe you should about why the group decided to rescind the invite.Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts "God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.
