Perhaps I misread his sentiment but the Catholic call outs are hard to justify otherwise. I don't know Mr. Barnhisel's religion but it's not at all a good assumption that since he teaches at a Catholic college that he is in fact Catholic, or if Catholic identifying, is faithful to its essential teachings. . Many if not most professors in large US Catholic colleges are not Catholic. Hires are made without regard to religion particularly outside of the theology and philosophy departments.
And why not ? Most major US Catholic colleges have long-ago (at least since 1960s) abandoned any attempt to teach, explain, defend, or even in some cases, tolerate Catholicism, nor the practice of its theological or moral teachings except in a cafeteria style manner to support left-wing causes which may or may not be in line with Catholic teaching.
