Catholic School Board in Canada Reverses Decision, Votes to Fly LGBT ‘Pride’ Flag Outside Every School

The Halton Catholic School District Board voted 5-3 to fly the pride flag outside its schools every June.

BURLINGTON, Ontario (LifeSiteNews) — An Ontario Catholic school district board voted last month to fly the LGBT pride flag outside all of its schools this coming June to signal support for “pride month,” reversing its decision last April not to raise the rainbow colors.

The Halton Catholic School District Board (HCSDB) in Burlington, Ontario, voted 5­-3 on January 18 to raise the homosexual pride flag this June and every June thereafter, throwing its support behind the LGBT movement.

The following day a message on the HCSDB’s Twitter feed confirmed the outcome of the vote, which was said to have “lasted well into the night,” according to a CHCH report.

“The #HCDSB Board of Trustees just voted to fly the Pride Flag outside of all HCDSB schools and the Catholic Education Centre for the month of June, and each June moving forward,” the tweet read.

Idiots. Teaching their children that sexual sin and depravity should be cheered on.

Exactly. I hope they chose to fly it atop all the other flags.

Moronic.

They folded like a rusty lawn chair. No resolve.
I realize a big part of keeping any big church going is business related and being diplomatic, but don’t lose the plot in efforts to appeal. At some point the loyalty is transfered away from the Word of God over to the words of liability lawyers. Don’t lose your corporate soul.

End times. I never thought I would be alive for the second coming. I think I may actually live to see the glory of it all. I sure hope I do, but it be be according to His will. He says too, we will and do know the season.

I just saw a TV commercial for a medication used to treat various cancers associated with male homosexual sex acts. Others could get those diseases, also from promiscuity, but the diseases are found mostly among homosexual men.

Who wouldn’t be proud of that?

Where is the Bishop? Don’t they ultimately control these schools? Isn’t the whole point of having a clerical hierarchy to prevent the anarchy of democracy?

Well, when you are not a Christian organization dose it really matter?

The Catholic church has been flying false flags for a long time. Kind of like coming out of the closet.

“Catholic” schools in Canada are partly government-financed. He who writes the checks calls the shots, etc. It’s a bad system, just like the Church tax in Germany is a bad system.

When you pay for Catholic school you expect they would uphold Christian teaching. I was sorely disappointed that a Catholic university I pumped hard earned dollars into for an education was supporting BLM, which celebrates the destruction of the nuclear family.

By the way, is there a straight flag? Who makes a flag to “celebrate” their sexual proclivities? There is even a rubber fetish flag:

In a sane world that’s called “grooming”.

It is one thing to teach non-violence, it’s another to teach cowardice.

So just another school of sodomy like the government schools?

The big religion divide these days isn't Catholic versus Protestant, Christian versus Jew, or even Deist versus atheist. It's non-sodomy versus sodomy.

The sodomy faction has the support of the ruling class and appears to be winning, though I expect it will lose in the end. The only question is how many they will drag down with them.

And just exactly what was Martin Luther’s crime against the church?

How sad. Indoctrination of children. This will not end well.
