Barrett was trustee at private school with anti-gay policies

and grew out of the Catholic charismatic movement rooted in Pentecostalism that began in the late 1960s. It emphasizes a personal relationship with Jesus and can include baptism in the Holy Spirit, speaking in tongues and prophecy, according to former members, experts who have studied the movement, and its own publications. Most members are Roman Catholic.More than half of the people AP interviewed were involved with Trinity or People of Praise within the last decade.

In addition to the written policies, school administrators made clear verbally they did not want to admit children of gay families, multiple people told the AP. A faculty employment agreement in place for the 2014-15 school year, obtained by the AP, states that “Blatant sexual immorality has no place in the culture of Trinity Schools.”

Several former students of varying ages who attend all three Trinity schools separately described being taught a vivid reading from Dante’s “Inferno” that depicts the eternal suffering of Sodomites condemned to hell for their sins. Four of them said teachers made clear the passage referred to gay men who were rightly suffering in hell. Some more recent graduates of the Minnesota school, however, said their teacher did not dwell on the passage.

During her confirmation hearing last week, Barrett also framed sexuality as a “preference.” That wording is rejected by LGBTQ advocates because it suggests sexual orientation is a choice. Turpin-King recalled that during 9th grade one of her teachers told the class that all gay people go to hell. Another Trinity graduate, who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because his parents are still in People of Praise and his sexuality remains a sensitive topic for them, was forced to undergo conversion therapy after Trinity administrators learned he was gay at age 16. He also recounted being counseled by a senior People of Praise leader that same-sex attraction was “changeable” with treatment and prayer.

Connolly said that account of what happened was “not accurate,” though he declined to provide details “out of respect for all parties involved.”

mrsmith mbieseck I actually love this. It shows they got nothing on her. 😂

mrsmith mbieseck Love this thread. My opportunity to teach the haters about God. Lesson one. God loves you. I give you time to steam over that one before I go on. If it burns in your gut remember its doing you good.

mrsmith mbieseck No they don’t want the gay life taught to children.

mrsmith mbieseck There’s no such thing as LGBTQRSTUV children. Sexuality is not defined until after puberty.

mrsmith mbieseck What’s the difference between “effectively barred admission” and “actually barred admission”? Oh... actual examples. So this is “effectively” a garbage story.

mrsmith mbieseck The GOP believes this is one of the Church Lady’s sterling qualifications. And we’re already aware of her medieval views on women’s rights and abortion.

mrsmith mbieseck A student wants to join a private school but doesn’t want to follow its religion... so the school should have to change their entire foundation of beliefs to accommodate the student who can go to any other private or public school...

mrsmith mbieseck Anyone else remember when the was an actual news organization

HeatherHale88 mrsmith mbieseck I know that Barrett does not believe in equality for all.

mrsmith mbieseck .... & hey check out the Pope!

mrsmith mbieseck Why would they go to a school that interprets the Bible as written? Clearly you have a different belief system. I wouldn’t try to put my kids in a Muslim school. Most schools are secular, so plenty of choices.

mrsmith mbieseck Ass Poser news eh?

matbreen mrsmith mbieseck Pope Francis endorsed civil unions for the first time as pope, and said in an interview for the film that, “Homosexual people have the right to be in a family. They are children of God.”

mrsmith mbieseck NEWSFLASH: Christian schools believe Christian teachings.

mrsmith mbieseck If you think she supports LGBTQ people you are not paying attention. More than the ACA and women’s rights to choose is on the line.

mrsmith mbieseck Private Christian School - seriously. This is stupid journalism but keep trying. She’s getting confirmed.

mrsmith mbieseck And who is this quote attributed to? I'm guessing another fabricated bs story. Can't find real events to suit your narrative? Make one up and gaslight it as the truth!

mrsmith mbieseck And how many other mainstream organizations were the same? How about the military, the US government for example. These organizations have evolved in their views as society has. The norms of society change. People change along the same lines.

mrsmith mbieseck Well yes.... A private school gets to decide who they let into their school 🤦

mrsmith mbieseck Why would someone want to go to that private school if philosophy was different?
