V-Monologues continue to pollute Catholic campuses

According to the Cardinal Newman Society, performances of the V-Monologues, Eve Ensler's lewd play celebrating lesbianism, group masturbation, and lesbian seduction is down this year. From a high of 32 Catholic schools polluting the minds and hearts of their students, "only" 15 will engage in the scandal this year.

Don't be deceived about the nature of this play. I've read sections of it and stopped because the level of filth is so great I did not want the ideas in my head. And yet this poison is sold as "empowerment of women." One monologue has a teen minor describe her lesbian seduction as her "salvation." (She was also raped by her father. No surprise - lesbians love to demonize men, particularly dads.) And yes...we all know that the way to heal rape by incest is to commit statutory lesbian rape.

The V-monologues is one more illustration of the pornification of the culture reducing us to the level of animals, less than animals actually, because animals act in accordance with the natural law. I make my apologies to the barnyard for the comparison.

Many articles about V-M performances describe a theatre filled with coeds moaning and groaning simulating the sounds of sex. One monologue talks about the smells of female reproductive organs. This is barnyard imagery with animals sniffing each other's hindquarters and howling and grunting as they mate. But at least their mating has a purpose -- the birth of spring calves, piglets, and lambs. February's V-Monologues offer no such future hope, only the brutalization of women snuffling and grunting after one another like animals rolling in their own excrement. When all is said and done and the pigs lie satiated, however, the barnyard will be as empty as the Oklahoma dust bowl.

Why not pick a school off the list below, go to its website and protest this piece of porn being presented on campus. I'm choosing John Carroll. My dad attended the school for two years in the mid 1930s before applying and being accepted to the Naval Academy. From there he went out to the west coast, married my mom, deployed to Pearl Harbor where he, Mom, and my oldest brother survived the bombing. Daddy went on to father twelve more children; ten grew to adulthood. I wonder what he would think about the depths to which his alma mater has sunk. On second thought, I know, and it's a good thing for the president of the school, Fr. Robert L. Niehoff, S.J., that my admiral dad isn't alive to tell him.

And by the way, nine of the fifteen schools listed are run by Jesuits. Consider that their motto is Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam, For the Greater Glory of God. What an obscenity to present the V-Monologues under the Jesuit banner. May St. Ignatius intercede for the repentance and conversion of the order he founded as the pope's men. If they don't, may God wipe them from the face of the earth. They have done more to destroy the innocence of Catholic students than any other single order, I believe, although the Sisters of Mercy may be a close second.
