Canada Court Upholds Homosexual Agenda over Religious Faith

The Ontario Superior Court has upheld the decision to deny accreditation to a Christian law school because of its stance against homosexuality. When the 4,000-student Trinity Western University in Vancouver, British Columbia, wanted to open a law school a couple of years ago, the Law Society of Upper Canada barred accreditation. The Ontario Court “found that the denial of accreditation did violate Trinity’s freedom of religion, but that this violation was acceptable because of the greater good of protecting equality” (“Canada Court Denies Christian Law School Accreditation Due to University’s Rule against Gay Sex,” The Stream, July 5, 2015). This is the latest in a series of attacks on religious liberty in Canada. Ken Ham rightly observes: “[We] have been warning that legalizing gay ‘marriage’ is only the beginning of an agenda. From what we’ve seen and know about the LGBT movement, the leaders don’t just want legalization of their immoral behavior, but also want to force acceptance of this on everyone. They want everyone not just to tolerate their position, but to accept it while they themselves show intolerance for those who do not hold to their views” (Around the World with Ken Ham, July 7, 2015).
