I recently watched the video of Ted Kennedy's funeral at a basilica in Boston. It warmed my heart to see a member of his family pray for lgbt equality during the intercessions, and was mentioned at other times by speakers. I can imagine the officiating clergy had their cassoks in a bunch.

I salute those brave students for taking a stand against their hierarch.
