How 1970s Lesbian Religious Sisters Made Greenville, NC a Sodomy Haven

ECU Newman Center's Gay Past.

“All the evils of the world are due to lukewarm Catholics.”
-Pope St. Pius V

Greenville, North Carolina isn’t the most significant location in the U.S., but it’s a disproportionately sodomite sanctuary, and you wouldn’t believe who helped make it that way.

Yes, the astute observer, who’s gotten used to this sort of thing, might guess that it was . . . LUKEWARM Catholics, or to be specific, lesbians masquerading as religious sisters. This article will explain how this started at the community’s Catholic Newman Center, why it matters, and what we can learn from this microcosm of modern American perversity. 

Where is Greenville, NC? Why Care About it?

This community, roughly 1 ½ hours east of Raleigh, had the seeds of sodomy sown into its culture by deviant religious sisters in the late 1970s (as I’ll detail below).

Greenville is now the 12th-largest North Carolina city and home to East Carolina University (ECU). It had a substantial “gay” presence well before the rapid cultural shift toward everything gay in the 2010s/2020s.

Greenville’s Proto-Pride (1975 to 1984)

Although ECU already had its “Eastern Gay Alliance” as early as 1975, it wasn’t much to speak of initially; a quiet support group for confused youngsters. That was until the Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM), a corrupted, modernist religious order, energized the local deviants by hosting gay social parties for them at the Newman center.

Yes, my friends, consecrated religious, allegedly affiliated with the Catholic Church, hosted gay social hours at the local university’s Newman Center, including serving in an advisory role. Of course, this wasn’t an isolated incident. You can see from my title photo that the Newman Center provided a haven for something called a “Hunger Coalition” combined with the East Carolina Gay Community.

This was a logo design for the Newman Center, which appeared in the publication, Ebony Herald, for its October 1981 issue. It specifically stated that both the Hunger Coalition and East Carolina Gay Community enjoyed safe harboring at the Newman Center, aided by the lesbian religious. Sister Shondell, IHM, according to my research, was affiliated with the Hunger Coalition at least as early as 1977 at ECU.

Since when did the Catholic Church offer a haven for sodomites?

Well, at least since the late 1970s in jolly, old Greenville. Furthermore, Sister Shondell even admitted to being a pervert (in an interview with the campus paper: see page 3) when confronted about offering support to this community.

“Sexual orientation is established between the ages of three and six. It’s not sexual preference. I never had a choice about my sexuality.”

In 1981, the neighboring fraternity, which included Catholic men, stole some of the Newman Center’s props from their homecoming float and burnt them in front of their frat house. They even offered to pay Sister Shondell to evict the sodomites from the Newman Center (she refused). Other sources show that she was an active advisor to the East Carolina Gay Community for multiple years, headquartered at Newman. The rift over gay tolerance between Sister Shondell and the fraternity (Tau Kappa Epsilon) was believed to have repelled almost all Catholics from the Newman Center.

Then Newman Center President, Cheryl Muzzarelli, seemed to lament the dreadful intolerance of young Catholics who didn’t want to hang out at the infected college organization.

“I wish the Catholics who won’t come to Newman would stop and think about what they’re basing their reasons on. Would you stop coming to your classes or this school because there are gays here? No! It’s not fair that we [Newman Center] have to suffer.”

Such a conundrum would, of course, become much more relevant decades later, where Catholics must indeed avoid universities plagued with the LBGTQ empire trying to brainwash and groom them.

That was the leadership of the college community’s Catholic Church in the 70s and 80s. It lasted this way until 1984, when Sister Shondell’s chaplaincy was replaced by a “staunchly conservative priest,” who finally forced the sodomites out of the Newman Center. Shondell’s absence led to the end of this particular iteration of the area’s gay movement, but as we would see, it would remain alive and well, albeit dormant for a brief respite. In the late 1980s, sodomy wasn’t as visibly popular or outspoken (except in San Francisco) for various reasons.

Regrettably, with the awful movement not totally extinguished, things would later become much worse. The perverts would develop their “gay communities” into the more expansive “Pride” movements, including the awful parades; several of which were hosted in Greenville.

By 1995, the area’s sodomy movement would re-emerge with a series of Down East Pride Festivals. These lasted from 1995 to 1999. Among other attention-seeking mechanisms, this was perhaps the first time Greenville residents would enjoy full exposure to the debaucherous outdoor “drag performances.”

The festivals included workshops on topics such as “rural organizing,” “pride dance,” “religion and spirituality in the gay community,” HIV healthcare, and the then novel concept of “hate crimes.”

Even ECU’s much older cross-state, sister school, UNC Chapel Hill, didn’t begin having full-fledged pride parades until recently. Also, to show that these festivals weren’t just a blip on the radar, we can see that they even attracted attention from politicians and celebrities.

Big-Name Supporters Applauded Greenville’s Sodomy Pride

Dozens of local leaders and university faculty helped promote the festivals by delivering keynote speeches and donating resources.

There were also celebrities, like former ECU undergraduate and beloved actress, Sandra Bullock, who praised the 1995 festival organizers with encouraging words:

“I want to acknowledge you for your commitment and for all your hard work in organizing an event that promises to provide a place where all individuals are free to express themselves, free from prejudice, and are free to be human. I honor you.”
-Sandra Bullock, in a support letter for Greenville’s “first-ever gay pride celebration.”

Better than that, even the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell President,” Bill Clinton sent warm regards not once, but twice (so much for not telling).

Then, we shouldn’t forget the fair-weather, appease-everyone, administration at ECU, who gushed at the idea to start a new student center to accommodate the school’s growing gay movement. Also, the campus’s largest building, the new ECU Student Center, would offer substantial space for the Dr. Jesse R. Peel LGBTQ Center as a supposed resource center. This went forward in 2011 at the insistence of then ECU Chancellor Steve Ballard, after hearing a stirring presentation from the local perverts, pretending to be victims.

Finally, as I close out this summary of the history of ECU/Greenville’s gayness, I’ll anticipate and deflect a potential criticism. One might say that I’ve guilefully pieced together random historical events to suit a predetermined narrative. To that, I recommend the reader peruse through the sources themselves. Those links come straight from ECU’s very own “proud” historical collection of LGBT development over the years.

It took no such manipulation or clever machinations to construct any preferred narrative (I merely found what was hidden in plain sight). I literally stumbled onto this junk while smoking a cigar and browsing the web.

Did God Chastise Greenville by Flooding it?

Yes, in 1999, the sodomites attempted a Fifth Down East Pride Event (complete with an “ecumenical service”), but this time God derailed their nefarious designs before the festival could finish. In His glorious wrath, he delivered a catastrophic hurricane, which flooded Greenville, rendering the area impassable for several weeks.

To be sure, Our God, who is not to be mocked, has a history of sending disasters to punish fags and their allies.

If such a chastisement sounds familiar, it’s also what happened to the Los Angeles Dodgers, last year, after they honored the perfidious Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. God sent a rare Pacific hurricane to inundate their stadium. Notice also, yet another parallel regarding religious sisters, or as I should say, the mockery thereof. Both cases involved fake sisters calling down God’s wrath for their treacherous duplicity.

Of course, the chicanery becomes even more apparent when you observe how these sodomy groups always boast of fictitious humanitarian efforts. Examples of this abound among modern communist sodomites (see: Liberation Theology, Sister Shondell’s “Hunger Coalition,” the “charitable” efforts of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, etc.).

They often cover for their depravity with a veritable smokescreen of philanthropy. However, we should liken their altruism to the gentle lamb-fur that a wolf would use to conceal its ferocity.

The Catholic blogger, Mundabor, summarizes it this way (bold emphasis = mine):

“What all do these faggopriests have in common? You guessed right: social justice engagement. It seems a constant trait of these not-religious, religious people.” 

Greenville: Cursed by Sodomy?

Aside from the 1999 deluge, has Greenville incurred any further chastisement for its ceaseless deviance?

Yes, it’s home to demonic enterprises, such as this rotten store, which I call Demons R Us, since they unabashedly peddle tarot-card reading, magic, witchcraft, and other divinations. Its front door enjoys ominous protection from what appears to be “Pirate Baphomet.” The area is also home to a deplorable Hindu temple, Unitarian Church, Islamic Center, among many other terrible venues.

Demons R Us store (Greenville).
Behold the diabolical shop, Demons R Us, in Greenville. “Hey, Obi-wan, I think we found a more wretched hive of scum and villainy, and probably that Sith Lord we’ve been after, too.” Who IS that dude on the right?

Of course, none of this may perturb you since you’d find much of it in other cities. However, 10th Street, home to the Newman Center, may itself suffer from a horrible curse. One of the adjacent academic buildings, the Brewster Building, has seen no less than half a dozen faculty members die prematurely over about 10 years, most because of pancreatic cancer.

Finally, further up the road, is the university’s largest building, the ECU Student Center which houses the LGBTQ society prominently. It has a massive electronic billboard, which constantly flashes fag propaganda on its screen. Who knows what further divine retribution this will heap upon the town?

All that being said, I should acknowledge at least a few rays of hope for poor Greenville.

Cleansing of the Newman Center?

I find it ironic that it took a bunch of dudes from one of those freemasonic-ish fraternities, Tau Kappa Epsilon (TKE), to sanction the wayward Newman Center. Granted, the homecoming burning incident probably made Sister Shondell consider herself a martyr, but at least someone took a stand against the depravity.

Thankfully, if there is any silver lining to all of this, the Newman Center eventually enjoyed some measures of reform. After years of laxity and mediocre participation levels, by the 2020s, it underwent renovations and even briefly featured a few offerings of the Traditional Latin Mass. Then one student even erected a beautiful Rosa Mystica Prayer Garden, honoring the Blessed Mother in the outside area.

The most recent chaplain (a good local priest) has encouraged a sturdier Catholicism and took it upon himself to learn the TLM just before Antipope Bergoglio’s Traditionis Custodes. We might optimistically speculate that this helped cleanse the Newman Center of some of the lingering spiritual effects from all the fag parties. 

Alas, that relief didn’t last long, since Luis Zarama, the Bishop of Mexico Raleigh, halted the TLM and forced the poor chaplain to resume saying Mass versus populum.

Why Don’t “Good” Catholics Ever Intervene Against These Evils?

Moreover, “good” Catholics rarely seem willing to undo and correct the infection of sodomy, liberalism, and modernism after entrance into parishes, communities, or universities. They’re always content with adapting to the status quo as the proverbial “Overton Window” slides imperceptibly farther along to accommodate our enemies’ intentional decadence.

In a future article, I may further elaborate on the distinction between “traditional” Catholic versus the less resilient “conservative” facade (these are not the same). For now, the crucial takeaway is that conservatives don’t stand for anything concrete and objective, whereas a solid traditionalist can enjoy sure footing in the perennial teachings of Holy Church. Conservatives, to the contrary, are more likely to ignore social depravity, bury themselves in their professions, embrace the “Protestant Work Ethic,” and pursue a lifestyle more akin to the “Prosperity Gospel.”

Perhaps this meme best explains the distinction . . . 

Traditional vs. Conservative Meme
In other words, conservatives always regress to normalcy bias. You can and should do better with authentic, traditional Catholicism rather than silly, yahoo, vapid conservatism.

Conclusion

I encourage everyone to investigate the history of the areas in which they live. Sometimes we can learn valuable lessons from deplorable past events. Chances are, you live in a place, like Greenville, which has suffered a rapid transformation into a leftist hellhole, with the help of lukewarm Catholics and/or deviant religious. I suspect there are similar stories from among locations all across western civilization to varying degrees.

Finally, don’t forget to pray for consecrated religious, the repose of the soul of Sister Shondell, and recite the Rosary (15 decades) every day.
