Olivia Harrison’s parents thought that St. Vincent’s Cathedral School in Bedford would be perfect for their 4-year-old daughter. The couple believed that, as nondenominational Christians, their values would align with those taught at the school. But the school thought otherwise. Jill and Tracy Harrison are lesbians and a school administrator told them the school was not “a good fit for their child.” The administrator explained that the private Christian school would be teaching values and morals contrary to what the child would be learning at home, and that would be confusing for the child.

Earlier this month, a Roman Catholic Cardinal in Scotland blasted the United States for questioning the early release of Abdelbaset al-Megrahi, otherwise known as the Lockerbie bomber. You may recall that he developed cancer while in prison in Scotland, asked to be returned to Libya so he could die at home and subsequently was sent back there by Scottish authorities.
