Christian B&B owners ordered to pay gay couple $4,500 in damages

GRAND FORKS, British Columbia , July 19, 2012 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) - Christian owners of a bed and breakfast in British Columbia have been ordered to pay around $4,500 in damages after they refused to rent a room to a homosexual couple. Brian Thomas and Shaun Eadie had reserved a room at the Riverbend B&B in Grand Forks in June 2009, but owners Les and Susan Molnar cancelled the reservation after realizing they were homosexual. Was this another sting like Stonewall in the UK? Most likely! Shaun Eadie and Brian Thomas “To allow a gay couple to share a bed in my Christian home would violate my Christian beliefs and would cause me and my wife great distress,” Lee explained in tribunal documents. Thomas and Eadie filed a complaint with the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal , which ruled in their favour on Tuesday. Tribunal member Enid Marion  ordered  the Molnars to “ cease and desist the discriminatory conduct,” though they closed the B&B down in September 2009 as a r

They also pointed out that the song’s lyrics contain a “worldview which [is] offensive to most religions as well as atheism. ”Burnaby Parents’ Voice had argued in a letter to Premier Christy Clark and Education Minister George Abbott that Lady Gaga and her song ‘ Born This Way ’ are not appropriate “learning resource[s] in public schools.” In one verse Gaga si

True-marriage advocates have long maintained that Canada’s 2005 redefinition of marriage to include homosexual couples would pave the way for any kind of sexual union to be legally called marriage, including polygamy. Chief Justice Robert Bauman But Chief Justice Robert Bauman criticized this view for “miss[ing] the whole point.” “Committed same-sex relationships celebrate all of the values we seek to preserve and advance in monogamous marriage ,” he said, adding that the “doctrinal underpinnings of monogamous same-sex marriage are indistinguishable from those o

School trustee balks as gay anti-bullying material exposes children to gay porn videos

VANCOUVER, British Columbia , October 6, 2011 – Videos showing naked men graphically sodomizing one another - included as “resource material” in an “anti-bullying” initiative for Vancouver’s schools - are “really inappropriate,” says a trustee . Trustee Ken Denike’s criticism of the Out in Schools program (OIS) comes after parents complained that Burnaby schools were duped into supporting it as an “anti-bullying” initiative when in fact the program is nothing other than a “scam” by “sex activists” to “sexualize students” and “lure” them into “homosexualist culture.” “I thought it was really inappropriate, especially for a 13-year-old,” Denike told QMI Agency , referring to material from the Health Initiative for Men (HIM) website that was listed as a “youth resource” in the Out In Schools booklet. “This is material that’s on Xtube , which is really adult material.” Find the graphic sexual material at the Health Initiative for Men’s website  here .

Lies, seduction, and criminal activity: pro-family group exposes homosexual ‘Out in Schools’ program

Image via Wikipedia A national organization located in British Columbia is seeking to expose what they argue are the lies, seduction, and criminal activity at the heart of the homosexual agenda being pushed on students in Canadian schools. “I believe parents will be shocked and righteously angry when they find out what their children have been subjected to. I hope parents sue their local school boards!” said Kari Simpson, President of Culture Guard, an organization that seeks to safeguard community values such as the natural family, parental rights, and the sanctity of life. The Lies Simpson uncovered what she says was only the tip of the iceberg of the strategy to indoctrinate kids into what she calls the “ homosexist sex-activism culture” when she came across  Out in Schools (OIS) . The program targets students aged 13-18 years and aims to bring “queer films” to local schools to “facilitate discussion with youth on bullying, homophobia and stereotypes” and to provide a “safe spac

Pro-homosexual ‘equity’ policies amount to ‘ethical cleansing’

Image via Wikipedia Equity policies purporting to combat “homophobia” amount to “ethical cleansing” that aim to eliminate opposing moral views, says the Catholic Civil Rights League of British Columbia . In a July 6th letter, CCRL BC Director Sean Murphy criticized the BC Civil Liberties Association ’s support for an equity policy that passed in the Burnaby school board in June.  The policy aims to combat “heterosexism,” which it defines as the “assumption that all people are heterosexual and that heterosexuality is superior and more desirable for all people than any other sexual orientation.” Murphy invited the BCCLA to join them in signing a new Declaration on the Authority of Parents and Guardians in the Education of their Children, which they say is a non-denominational statement of principles offered to all people of good will. “The Declaration is not specific to the Catholic Church or Catholic teaching,” said Murphy. “It cites numerous international conventions and decla

BC School Board trustee-candidate conducts ‘homophobia’ presentations without parental notification

Image via Wikipedia A homosexual activist running for Trustee on the Vancouver School Board has drawn the attention of parents with children in British Columbia ’s public school system for conducting “homophobia” presentations in their children’s classrooms, without parental notification. A former Salmon Arm , BC student, 24-year-old Ryan Clayton is a homosexual activist who has been hired by various school boards in the Vancouver area to make presentations to Grade 8 and 10 students addressing “homophobia.” He has been making these presentations with the school boards’ approval since 2008, yet without any type of parental notification. “This year was the first time they sent a notice home to parents to inform them of it,” Yolanda Jontz, a mother of students in the North Okanagan Shuswap District said. Canada’s Gay and Lesbian Newspaper, Xtra,  described  Ryan as an “openly gay education activist.”  In a recent interview to mark the launch of his run for School Board Trustee, Ry
