November 22, 2011  - Brazil’s largest Catholic television network has decided to end a controversial new program led by a well-known socialist, homosexualist politician.

rough the twitter account #CançãoNovaSemPT (New Song without the Labor Party).
The “Justice and Peace” show, which aired weekly beginning November 3, featured Edinho Silva, who was billed as a “sociologist,” but who is also the leader of the ruling Labor Party in the state of São Paulo.
Catholic commentators were quick to point out that Silva openly promotes the homosexualist political agenda, and leads a party that is seeking to legalize the murder of unborn children throughout Brazil, in the name of “public health.”
During the national elections earlier this year, Silva’s political machine led the attack against Catholic bishops who sought to alert voters about the pro-abortion policies of the Labor Party, according to Wagner Moura, one of Brazil’s top Catholic bloggers.
The Brazilian Catholic website "Feel with the Church" (Sentir com a Igreja) ran a cartoon featuring Edinho Silva being "defenestrated."
“The president of the Labor Party in the State of São Paulo is the same who, in 2010, directly promoted the persecution of the document of the Southern Division 1 of the National Conference of Brazilian Bishops, which asks Catholics not to vote for pro-abortion politicians like president Dilma Rousseff,” writes Moura.
“Through Labor Party attorneys, the president went to the Electoral Court to prevent the continuance of the printing of the documents,” Moura adds. After the document was confiscated by authorities, the act was declared illegal by a Brazilian court.
The description of the now-canceled program, called “Justice and Peace” can still be found on the New Song site. The show was co-hosted by leftist bishop Demetrio Valentini, and would “discuss social topics based on the social doctrine of the Church, contained in the Catechism of the Catholic Church.” The topics would include “democracy, health, education, strikes, unions, and religious liberty.”
According to Brazilian Catholic activist Antonio Donato, several other socialist politicians were also removed from New Song TV programming, including Gabriel Chalita, Eros Biondini, Paulo Barbosa, Myriam Rios, and Lu Alckmin. 
The Brazilian Catholic website “Feel with the Church” (Sentir com a Igreja) responded to the news with a cartoon featuring Edinho Silva being “defenestrated” (thrown out of a window) from the New Song TV headquarters by Jesus and a Catholic bishop.

A Catholic school board in Ontario will vote next week on a motion to fly the rainbow-colored homosexual pride flag at all board-run schools during the month of June. Halton Catholic District School Board (HCDSB) Trustee Brenda Agnew gave notice of her motion titled “supporting our diverse school community” during an April 6 board meeting. Quoting Pope Francis along with LGBT talking points about “equity and inclusion,” the motion calls for the Board’s Director of Education Pat Daly to “direct all HCDSB schools including the Catholic Education Centre to fly the Pride flag during the month of June starting with 2021.” The motion is expected to be voted on by the Board at their next meeting on April 20. With nine trustees, the motion requires five votes to pass. A tied vote results in a fail. The HCDSB states on its website that its mission is to provide “excellence in Catholic education by developing Christ-centred individuals enabled to transform society.” The Catholic Church, basing i...

DENVER, CO ,  – A Colorado board has ruled that a Christian business owner must make wedding cakes for homosexual "marriages" despite his religious objections. Business owner Jack Phillips came under legal fire in 2012, when he refused to bake a cake for Dave Mullins and Charlie Craig , who had traveled to Massachusetts for a marriage license, and wanted to celebrate in their home state. They sued on the basis of a state law that prevents the application of religious beliefs if one owns a business. The Commission's ruling, which was issued verbally on Friday, orders Phillips to report every three months for the next two years on anti-discrimination training for his staff, and any customers who are refused service at his establishment. "I can believe anything I want, but if I'm going to do business here, I'd ought to not discriminate against people," said one of the Civil Rights Commission 's seven members in a public statement.

Are Hate Tribunals Are Coming In Canada , it is considered discriminatory to say that marriage is between a man and a woman or that every child should know and be raised by his or her biological married parents.  It is not just politically incorrect in Canada to say so; you can be saddled with tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees, fined, and forced to take sensitivity training. Anyone who is offended by something you have said or written can make a complaint to the Human Rights Commissions and Tribunals. In Canada, these organizations police speech, penalizing citizens for any expression deemed in opposition to particular sexual behaviors or protected groups identified under “sexual orientation.” It takes only one complaint against a person to be brought before the tribunal, costing the defendant tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees. The commissions have the power to enter private residences and remove all items pertinent to their investigations, checkin...
