Does Canada's Human Rights Commission (HRC) ??!!

Equal Josef Goebbel's Ministry of Propaganda and National Enlightenment?! :)

Yes!

If we:

Substitute Catholics for Jews...

"When a gay activist complained, Fr. de Valk was charged with promoting extreme hatred and contempt..."

F. Douglas Kneibert's latest:

"Are the Dark Clouds of Persecution Beginning to Gather?"


Adapted from his article by that name in the New Oxford Review. July - August 2009.

"Substitute Catholics for Jews... The silencing of dissenting voices is always one of the first steps taken by authoritarian governments."

"In that respect, what has been happening north of the border is of special interest today, where the so - called Canadian Human Rights Commission (HRC) has been running roughshod over free speech and religious rights -- all in the name of tolerance.

"But it is an intolerant tolerance.

"Consider the case of Fr. Alphonse de Valk, who wrote an article in the Canadian Catholic Insight magazine defending Church teaching on homosexuality.

"When a gay activist complained to the HRC, Fr. de Valk was charged with promoting extreme hatred and contempt towards homosexuals.

"Although the charges were eventually dropped, the accused was forced to spend several thousand dollars in legal defense fees, not to mention suffering the disruption of his life."


And Alberta's Human Rights Tribunal??!!

It really stomps on non - Catholic Christians!


"The Rev. Stephen Boisson, an evangelical pastor was not so fortunate.

"His letter to the editor of a Canadian newspaper , in which he presented the biblical teaching on homosexuality and criticized societal inroads made by gay activists, cost him dearly.

"Besides fining him $5,000 for a hate crime and ordering him to apologize to the gay complainant, the Alberta Human Rights Tribunal fixed a firm muzzle on his free - speech rights.

"Because we could be seeing something similar in this country, the Tribunal's order is worth quoting in full: Mr. Boisson and The Concerned Christian Coalition Inc. shall cease publishing in newspapers, by e - mail, on the radio, in public speeches, or on the Internet ... disparaging remarks about gays and homosexuals ... Further, all disparaging remarks ... are directed to be removed from current Web sites..."

My, my --- oh! My! :)
