America’s largest Catholic University, DePaul, in Chicago, Illinois hosted an event which promoted and glorified polyamory and open relationships. The University’s LGBTQA Resource Center hosted the event.

The event was called ‘Polyamory Pause,’ according to a flyer that was passed around campus. The pamphlet detailed that the event was “a dialogue on open relationships and polyamory.”

According to the Resource Center, the purpose of the event was to “dig past the surface conversation surrounding polyamory and open relationships.”

Polyamory is the type of relationship where one member can openly date others while continually seeing the primary partner.

Campus Reform interviewed with one of the participants and spoke with them about the event;

“I never liked relationships or wanted to be in one really because I felt like they had to be monogamous, that’s just what I knew, that’s what everyone around me experienced, that’s what I, like, felt, and I just knew that I didn’t wanna deal with. All the expectations that come with that, all the baggage. I feel like this is a more natural way,” the participant explained.

“I was never super into marriage, either,” the student added. “Like, I can’t make up my mind what I want to eat at Chipotle, like, how am I supposed to commit to one person, right?”

Universities across the United States have attempted to mainstream open relationships and polyamory, one example being at Vanderbilt University; an LGBT event titled; “Deconstructing Couplehood” was billed as a “crash course in polyamory” that would “‘deconstruct the ‘ideal’ and privileged relationship (that is straight, monogamous, married or heading that way, presumably white and middle to upper class), and look towards the other myriad ways to love and form community.”

Furthermore, the University of Michigan also held a similar event; “Navigating Relationships: Routing Our Own Courses” which was advertised as; “a facilitated discussion-style workshop on navigating healthy relationships, with an emphasis on polyamory and relationships involving asexual and/or aromantic partners.”

The Catholic Church outlines that marriage is a lifelong union between one man and one woman, joined as Husband and Wife in an intimate partnership of life and love. In addition, the Bible also outlines the definition of marriage as being between one man and one woman.

Given the intent of the workshop and or events mentioned above, the apparent motive for these workshops is to “deconstruct” the Biblical foundations of the family unit. Why then would America’s largest Catholic University host an event which contradicts both their teaching and the Biblical definition of marriage?

If the university is doing this then it is obviously wrong.

Th seven seals show a man riding a white horse. He was given power to conquer and destroy. Tht’s th antichrist spirit reigning in th world. Remember its th catholic who went about attempting to conquer Jerusalem but to destroy the Bible. Thanks to King James of England who stopped them.
