ST. LOUIS, Missouri (LifeSiteNews) – In recent weeks, religious and lay affiliates at a Catholic university have shown dissident support for transgender ideology in direct opposition to the teachings of the Catholic Church.
The conservative youth organization Young America’s Foundation (YAF) has drawn attention to St. Louis University (SLU), a Jesuit-founded institution, for pro-LGBT views and hosting a drag show despite protests from members of the school’s community.
On October 17, YAF posted a recording of a conversation in which a nun and a priest affiliated with SLU express personal support for gender ideology and suggest that the Catholic Church could also evolve into accepting transgenderism.
In the recording, a nun identified as Sister Nancy Corcoran claims that a mother of an 18-month-old “thought she had a girl,” but that the child allegedly announced at a young age that she was a “boy.” At five years old, when the girl received confirmation from her mother that she would grow breasts, Sister Corcoran said that the child “threw herself on the floor and said, ‘then I will kill myself’.” YAF confirmed Corcoran’s identity to LifeSiteNews.
