The New Jersey Supreme Court ruled in favor of a Roman Catholic school in a case involving employment discrimination allegations from an employee who was terminated after she became pregnant out of wedlock.

    The school claimed, however, that the termination was because Crisitello, in having premarital sex, violated the terms of her employment agreement, which stipulated that employees must abide by the teachings of the Catholic Church.

    And yet they protect and cover up the crimes of the priests who rape children. Why do they get a pass on abiding by the teachings of the Catholic Church? Does taking vows not include an employment agreement to not rape kids? What gives?

      It’s simple - she was a lowly teacher, and being pregnant is a problem women have that proves they had sex - And women are property in the good book, and a woman only has worth if they are virgins to be sold off as cattle (hence why the good book says a rapist must marry his victim and give her family 30 pieces of silver or whatever it was)

      The priests are part of the “upper management” if you will, and there is no physical giveaway that they had raped anyone - nothing grows and becomes unhidable on the priest when they rape and molest children, and therefore they can go along and never address something happened unless forced to address it, and it’s only been how many years since the world found out just how bad it’s been, and I still think it’s only the tip of the pedo iceberg
