VK3AUU,

I think you will find that one perversion often leads to another

Groan.

Can someone please remove the government funding from religious schools until they learn some proper morals.

Damn right Runner. Those deviated preverts need to be stopped from spreading their filthy preversions to impressionable young minds.

Who is going to teach the Government funded schools some morals?

I appreciate Catholic colleges publicly stating their rules like supporting homosexuality on campus, so I can make sure my kids do not attend this school.

If gays were bullied on campus, that is a disciplinary issue and something that should never be tolerated. However, to then go and support homosexuality, knowing that it is a sin? That is complete hypocrisy!

This isn't a gay issue, it's an issue that shows that this college fails at their commitment to discipline.

Then to continue that failure by supporting homosexuality shows that instead of addressing the serious issue of LACK of discipline, they decide to promote sinful behavior. With friends like that, who needs enemies?

No matter what the actual issue, this situation highlights the old 'Emperor/Pope' dichotomy and competition in a way.

One poster made the point about government funding, and the need to step back from it... amen.

When a Church becomes organizationally so large that it becomes inter-twined with the state, there will be expectations of mutual obligation, and this is never healthy for the Body of Christ to maintain purity of life and faith in practice.

For me, the most important aspect of this article relates to this statement.

"the Pride and Prejudice anti-homophobia program, something inconceivable only five years ago."

If this illustrates anything, it is 'social change' and in particular that driven by a lobby group/politicized segment of the community.

When it comes to homosexual behaviour, there is absolutely no grounds whatsoever for any body claiming the name of Christ, to offer comfort for such behaviour. Not only is it hypocritical it is downright sin.
On the other hand, to treat without compassion those who are confused about their sexual practices, would also be to sin.

Any group claiming to represent God's standards is unambiguously obliged by their covenant relationship to promote God's standards.
In terms of schools, that standard need not be compromised UNLESS....they are legally pressured due to Government funding which is linked to changes in legislation.. and if THAT is the cause of moral compromise, then it tells something about the lack of suitability of a 'Government funding/Church policy' arrangement.

PREVIOUSLY INCONCEIVABLE 5 yrs ago. Question: what happened in those 5 yrs? Clearly-lobbying,activism,protest.

This where we need to beware. NAMBLA are not far away, and have similar goals.
What's that I hear from the left? "Don't IMPOSE your values on us"
In this, I see the shoe is on the other foot.

Community Social/Moral decay does not happen overnight. In happens incrementally
