Gay Lobby and Western Consuls Against the Bishop of Hong Kong

Gay Pride slams Card Tong for defending the family, as a union of a man and a woman. The aim is to enshrine gay "rights" and eliminate "discrimination" in the law, including the recognition of gay marriage. Criticised for not following the pope and the Synod, the bishop calls on Catholics to be vigilant. A workshop on lovemaking techniques involves sex workers showing how to use sex toys and perform massages. For the upcoming District Council elections, the bishop calls on the faithful to take into account candidates' views on gay marriage.

Hong Kong (AsiaNews) - In the past few days, Card John Tong Hon, Bishop of Hong Kong, and the Catholic Church have been accused of "discrimination" by LGBT groups and representatives of Western governments in the territory for defending the institution of the family based on the union of a man and a woman, and for warning the faithful against any official recognition of gay unions as equal to the traditional family.

The war of words reached a crescendo yesterday afternoon when some 10,000 people from the Pink Alliance and other similar associations led the city's Gay Pride parade, calling on the Government of Hong Kong to ban all " discrimination "against people based on their sexual orientation, including gay marriage.

The consuls of France, Britain, Germany, United States, Sweden, Ireland, Canada, Switzerland, Australia, Finland, as well as representatives of the European Union and the British Council attended Hong Kong's Seventh Gay Pride.

For York Chow Yat-ngok, who heads Hong Kong's Equal Opportunities Commission, "our religion taught us [. . .] not to discriminate [against] people". Caroline Wilson, Britain's consul general, also talked about "discrimination". The Pink Alliance ridiculed Cardinal John Tong Hon's suggestion that gay marriage would trigger "social disorder".

Cardinal Tong Hon was told he was not invited to Francis’ synod because he was too old, 76 years old. But Francis personally chose the heretic, Cardinal Danneels, who is 82 years old, to attend same.

Don’t know what to say. The faggots are attacking the Church particularly. Wonder how horrible the faggots are going to make the world, before Moshiach comes.

Meanwhile, Communist China (like North Korea, Vietnam, Laos, and Cuba) doesn't have any of this "gay/transgender" nonsense but no Western Leftist ever protests them Communist countries are immune to the nihilism of the Western Left.
