Go SU!

Gotta love my alma mater. This is from the student paper, that I used to write for "The Daily Orange."

Michelle Deferio arrived on Waverly Avenue outside of Newhouse I around 2:30 p.m. Wednesday wearing a long corduroy skirt and holding a sign that read, "Homosexuality is a sin, Christ can set you free."

In response, Chris Pesto, a junior acting major who is gay, made a sign that read "Corduroy skirts are a sin, homosexuals can help you," and stood next to Deferio in protest.


The article then describes how a student protest spontaneously broke out.

Makes me miss home...

I'm a catholic lesbian and I still don't understand the Pope and his church judgment about homosexuality.
Jesus has always talked about love, tolerance, even acceptance. I believe in Him not in human interpretations.
Good article. Thank you Dip!
