Dan Maquire of Marquette University

Dan Maquire is a former priest, laicized in 1971, in order to marry Marjorie. He divorced her in 1991, to marry another. Marjorie apparently goes to some of his lectures and gets to the microphone, where she publically calls him an "Adulterer", and other names... so he tried to get an injunction against her, and silence her.

I'd like to shake the Judge's hand, because instead of an injunction, apparently he got rebuffed.

See pg 10 Millstone Award of that pdf file. HLI 'honored' him with this 'Millstone award'. I wish it were possible to insert the article here, because it is important to understand the ramifications of the damage this man has done to the Faith since he stood with Charles Curran and voiced his dissent of Humanae Vitae in 1968. Think of the sheer NUMBER of students he has had over the years, and how many each of THEM has affected!!

Add that to the number that Curran affected even before that day at Catholic University...and all of the others who were with them. Much of what he teaches, espouses is heresy.

And people want to 'blame' Vatican II for the trouble the Church is in? For the dissident legislators (like Kennedy, like Kerry, like Obey, and the others who call themselves Catholic...as well as those like Guilianni..)
For those who have NOT been properly taught the Catholic Faith for the past couple of generations....

These men were teaching and affecting people BEFORE Vatican II took place.

I do not understand how a Catholic school can continue to call itself Catholic and have professors like this teaching anything related to the Faith.

May God have Mercy.



US bishops denounce works by pro-abortion theologian
Washington, Mar. 23, 2007 (CWNews.com)

Washington, Mar. 23 (CWNews.com) - The US bishops have announced that two pamphlets circulated by a Marquette University theologian represent “false teaching” which cannot be reconciled with Catholic doctrine.

In a statement released on March 22, and approved by the administratative board of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), the bishops’ doctrinal committee said that the works by Daniel Maguire “do not present Catholic teaching.”

The doctrinal committee, chaired by Bishop William Lori of Bridgeport, Connecticut, addressed two pamphlets circulated last year by Maguire, covering the issues of contraception, abortion, and same-sex marriage. The USCCB concluded that Maguire’s views on those topics, and his understanding of Church teaching authority, “cross the legitimate lines of theological reflection and simply enter into the area of false teaching.”

In the pamphlets, Maguire had argued that “the Roman Catholic position on abortion is pluralistic,” claiming that some Catholics have always endorsed the “pro-choice” stance. He writes that on abortion-- and on other issues such as contraception and same-sex marriage-- there are two opposing Catholic views. “Neither is official,” he says, “and neither is more Catholic than the other.”

The US bishops flatly reject that claim. “While there may be individuals who disagree with the teaching of the Church,” the USCCB statement observes, “such divergent views cannot be considered authentic Catholic teaching or the basis for reliable guidance regarding faithful Catholic moral life.” The bishops encourage reference to the Catechism of the Catholic Church for “correct and authentic teaching.”

Informed about the USCCB statement, Maguire did not budge from his position, saying that the bishops themselves are wrong. “They’re simply uninformed,” he told the New York Times, insisting that there are many different Catholic positions on controversial issues. Daniel Maguire, a former priest who has long been an active proponent of legal abortion and supporter of “Catholics for a Free Choice,” teaches moral theology at Marquette, a Jesuit-run university in Milwaukee, Wisconson. The USCCB statement noted that Milwaukee’s Archbishop Timothy Dolan “has made public statements affirming that the views expressed by Professor Maguire in his two pamphlets are erroneous and incompatible with the Church's teaching.”
