University of Illinois Instructor Fired Over Catholic Beliefs

By ADF Alliance Alert

ADVERTISEMENTS

Fox News (AP): "The University of Illinois has fired an adjunct professor who taught courses on Catholicism after a student accused the instructor of engaging in hate speech by saying he agrees with the church's teaching that homosexual sex is immoral . . . Patricia Gibson, an attorney and chancellor of the diocese, said Howell was let go because he could no longer teach at the university. 'We are very concerned and very distressed by what we understand is the situation from Dr. Howell,' she said. The diocese hopes to discuss the situation with someone at the university, she said. A Christian legal defense group, The Alliance Defense Fund, said it is considering helping Howell."
