Michael Voris banned from speaking in Scranton Diocese

Apparently, a NO couple of the conservative type organized an event at Marywood University, which is a Catholic university in the Diocese of Scranton, PA. But the Bishop, and what a great guy he is , banned him from speaking. Here is their official statement:

The Diocese of Scranton has determined that Mr. Voris will not be allowed to speak in a Diocesan or parish facility. After these engagements were scheduled, the Diocese became aware of concerns about this individual’s views regarding other religious groups. In videos posted on the Internet, Mr. Voris makes comments that certainly can be interpreted as being insensitive to people of other faiths. The Catholic Church teaches us to respect all people, regardless of their faith tradition.

Although the Diocese shares Mr. Voris’ support of efforts to protect human life, his extreme positions on other faiths are not appropriate and therefore the Diocese cannot host him.
