Catholic Insight on watch list; gay men fellating in front of a little kid is fine though
The Shaidle
passes along the details that the Cat Who Has Achieved Ignition has unearthed concerning Heritage Canada, and it’s about as disgusting and hypocritical as one has come to expect from a “culture”-oriented department of the government of Canada.
Catholic Insight magazine is indeed on a watch list after an unnamed homosexual activist lodged a complaint (correct: somebody other than Rob Wells) against it. By and large, as BCF has learned, the material in the complaint was the same as the list of evidence brought before — and later dismissed by — the CHRC in Mr. Wells’ complaint against the publication.
BCF provides scans of letters sent to and from Heritage Canada. The first letter is from the complainant, whining about the “slow pace of action on the Catholic Insight file.” It is in the second letter that the order to Catholic Insight to provide advance copies of their publication for “monitoring purposes” is given. A third letter cautions Catholic Insight against the act of denigrating homosexuals.
Let’s be clear. Catholic Insight does nothing other than communicate the Church’s position on issues, not all of which are related to Sex, much less to homosexuality. But it must submit its content for advance screening — risking its access to postal subsidies if it does not pass the censor’s approval. We can argue about the lameness of accepting Caesar’s money and then using it to step on his toes from time to time*, but we can also ask about the priorities of this government department.
Because while Catholic teaching is subject to a censor’s advance approval, exhibitionist homosexuals demonstrating fellatio to a young child is evidently just fine and dandy (ahem) with Heritage Canada. Equally, a movie about boxing and masturbation gets the green light, in the form of tens of thousands of Heritage Canada dollars “proudly” given in sponsorship of InsideOut Gay and Lesbian Film Festival, in Toronto.
Welcome to Canada. The Church has kind of lost favour in our noble sight, but the high art of paedophilia is gaining ground all the time.
* this is twice now that the Shaidle has linked to my “Caesar” comment, causing (each time) the predictable spikes in traffic that attend a link from one of the hottest blogs in Canada. Very cool.
