Canadian priest investigated for 'hate-crime'

“If one, because of one’s sincerely held moral beliefs, whether it be Jew, Muslim, Christian, Catholic, opposes the idea of same-sex marriage in Canada, is that considered ‘hate’?”

The question was not rhetorical. Nor was it theoretical. Fr. Alphonse de Valk, a Basilian priest and pro-life activist known throughout Canada for his orthodoxy, is currently being investigated by the Canadian Human Rights Commission (CHRC) — a quasi-judicial investigative body with the power of the Canadian government behind it. The CHRC is using section 13 of Canada’s Human Rights Act to investigate the priest. This is a section under which no defendant has ever won once the allegation has gone to tribunal....

The all-powerful and all-knowing state decides what is right and what is wrong, what is good and what is evil.

With what "hate crime" is Father de Valk being charged?

[He] defended the Church’s teaching on marriage during Canada’s same-sex ‘marriage’ debate, quoting extensively from the Bible, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and Pope John Paul II’s encyclicals. Each of these documents contains official Catholic teaching. And like millions of other people throughout the world and the ages - many of who are non-Catholics and non-Christians — Father believes that marriage is an exclusive union between a man and a woman.

The radical homosexual agenda has been embraced by small-minded government officials and others who, due to malformed intellects and consciences, believe perversion and depravity are good for society. The tyrants wish to destroy the truth and all those who hold fast to it. They wish to deprive humanity of that which is good and wholesome and replace it with the vices and sins being offered and promoted by the evil one. How long will it be before the tyrants are cast down to the pits of their deceptive mentor and father? How long will it be before good men and women rise up to defeat and destroy these depraved reprobates?
