The usual screechers ---all 5 or 10--are clutching pearls and high-dudgeoning. Why? The Diocese of Des Moines remains Catholic.
Activists are speaking out against a sweeping policy change affecting children at Catholic Schools in southwest Iowa that prohibits them from using their preferred pronouns and bathrooms that defy their biological sex.
The seven new stipulations from The Diocese of Des Moines went into effect on Monday, and all revolve on how the religious organization deals with gender identity at is 17 schools and 80 parishes across the state.
A sect [sic] of the Catholic Church, the Diocese laid out an official document outlining the new rules - which includes a mandate that students participating in sports play only on teams matching their sex at birth.
Other rules to be enforced include that if the school has a dress code, students must follow it based on their biological sex, along with strict ban on gender blockers on school grounds.
The final rule insists students questioning their gender be brought to ministers within the church for guidance...
Imagine that!! The Catholic Church requires you to conform to the Will of God regarding your sex.
What will they think of next?
