Said the priests: "The University pursues a dangerous course when it allows itself to decide for and by itself what part of being a Catholic institution it will choose to embrace."

The priests lamented "the fissure that the invitation … has opened between Notre Dame and its local ordinary," and that the invitation "portends a distancing of Notre Dame from the Church."

"Although undoubtedly unintended, the University administration's decision portends a distancing of Notre Dame from the Church which is its lifeblood and the source of its identity and real strength," said the priests.  "Such a distancing puts at risk the true soul of Notre Dame."
