  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry.

The students' teacher threatened them with 'a Saturday school for next year' for deriding the pro-LGBT video.

HUNTINGTON BEACH, California (LifeSiteNews) — A viral video shows a teacher reprimanding students at a California high school who revolted against being shown a pro-LGBT “pride” video in class, in an example of continually rising tensions with the push for LGBT “acceptance” in public education.

The clip shows multiple Edison High School students registering verbal displeasure at being shown a 50-second “Pride Month” video in math class declaring, “at Edison, we should make all students feel welcome here, no matter their gender or sexual orientation. So if you’re out and proud, closeted, or even just an ally, be proud of who you are. And most importantly, don’t forget to love each other.”

I had heard a similar incident, but it was middle schoolers. Maybe the two got mixed up? There are in the gay community that this movement upsets. I watched a video of a gay man that was very anti this movement, especially the targeting of children. I have heard, this about many gays are upset. But the point that I would like to make is this.
If this movement becomes soundly rejected, especially by the kids. What will it be like for a true transgender kid? It is no different than fake claims of racist incidents, being proved a fake set up. Jussie smollet comes to mind, there are others, but his really became famous. Or when a rape, that was proved to be false, like in the la cross team years back. When that happens it truly harms those that are victims of those things. It is going to be the same thing for those suffering from gender dysphoria. It has been a rare thing. So those poor kids, if this thing turns around, those suffering from this, are going to be in a worse position than they were before. These activists are using them, and will end up harming them more in the end.

I am absolutely shocked that the kids, California kids no less, revolted. Pleasantly shocked. There may be hope.

We can hope that those very rare kids who are genetically different will still be helped. I suggest that one of the best places for that might be a Catholic school, where the concept of everyone being in the image of God CAN sometimes be asserted without gender bender goofiness.

I'm thinking of that letter from bishop Coakley found here: Full text of Bishop Coakley’s pastoral letter on gender dysphoria

In fact, I know they are:



I honestly hope that it is true that the majority of Americans side with the Catholic Church and conservatives in general on the LGBTQ issue. But the thing is, there was a survey a few months ago that said that more Americans than ever before support so-called "LGBTQ rights".


Whether or not the survey or poll is accurate, I don't know. I honestly hope that it's not accurate. Society needs to reject all of this garbage.

You make a good point. A lot of people have capitulated to the left out of fear.

People will complain "love is love" and it's "current year." Shows how much they truly care about their immortal souls. God, help us all.

It continues to gain traction....even in Canada!

High school students in Ottawa are staging a walkout to protest the radical gender ideology being forced on them by the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board:

Canada is even more woke than almost all of the USA. I wonder what fate these Canadian youth might be facing.

This is the moment when the one little kid points out to the adults that the emperor is in fact naked and not dressed in the finest threads. The adults will resist seeing this for a while. Later, the adults will have to face how they blinded themselves to obvious truth.

You're absolutely right. Lord knows, I wouldn't put Joe Biden in charge of a Sno-Cone stand, but he at least has the excuse of being senile and under the influence of the idiots who lead him around by the hand and tell him what to do and what to say. But Justin Trudeau does not have that excuse, and he's another one that is maybe capable of handling a job shoveling up elephant dung at the zoo. Maybe. (I think him and Gavin Newsom are twin brothers, to be honest.)

Supporting gay rights and supporting gay behavior are not the same thing in my mind. I think a better poll would be “would you want your children to become gay?” Asking someone if they should be discriminated against is a lot different than asking them if they advocate that type of behavior.

I agree with you. The questions in these types of surveys need to be more nuanced. Sadly, there's a lot of bias in surveys of this type.
