ENFORCING IMMORALITY: Canadian Christian Law School Denied Accreditation Because of Belief in Traditional Marriage

I call this the Sodom and Gomorrah Syndrome.

We know that we are in the end of the end days.  But take heart, brethren. As I’ve heard many Bible Prophecy teachers and watchers say:

Things are not falling apart – they are falling into place.

If the Democrats do well in the midterms (they’ve had a lot of time to rig the ballot boxes and add deceased people to voting registrars) and if (God forbid it) they get back into the White House, then what we are seeing happening in Trudeau’s Canada – will undoubtedly happen here.

I read recently that there are at least 3.5 million more names registered to vote than there are people over the age of 18. The National Review calls these people GHOST VOTERS  –source

The Supreme Court in Canada has ruled that a Canadian evangelical Christian university can be denied accreditation for its law school simply because it supports traditional marriage, CBC reports.

In two separate 7-2 rulings, the Supreme Court found that the law societies of British Columbia and Ontario can indeed deny accreditation to Trinity Western University because of the university’s community covenant that included a code of conduct that champions abstinence and heterosexual marriage. The court claimed that the covenant creates a barrier that prohibits LGBT students from attending the school.

The school’s mandatory covenant agreement upholds the values and beliefs of the Christian faith, which one would expect from an evangelical Christian school. It reads:

In keeping with biblical and TWU ideals, community members voluntarily abstain from the following actions: communication that is destructive to TWU community life and inter–personal relationships, including gossip, slander, vulgar/obscene language, and prejudice; harassment or any form of verbal or physical intimidation, including hazing; lying, cheating, or other forms of dishonesty including plagiarism; stealing, misusing or destroying property belonging to others; sexual intimacy that violates the sacredness of marriage between a man and a woman; the use of materials that are degrading, dehumanizing, exploitive, hateful, or gratuitously violent, including, but not limited to pornography; drunkenness, under-age consumption of alcohol, the use or possession of illegal drugs, and the misuse or abuse of substances including prescribed drugs; the use or possession of alcohol on campus, or at any TWU sponsored event, and the use of tobacco on campus or at any TWU sponsored event.

But the Supreme Court found that the law societies were acting well within their powers to decide against accrediting Trinity Western University’s law school and that the public interest of the legal profession has given them the right to promote equality and equal access within the bar to prevent alleged harm to LGBT students, despite the fact that doing so violates religious freedoms.

Law Society of B.C. President Miriam Kresivo agrees with the court’s determination that law societies have a responsibility to “uphold the rights of all persons and to protect the public interest.”

“The court recognized that the Law Society has an overarching interest in protecting equality and human rights,” he claims, “as well as … removing inequitable barriers to the legal profession, in carrying out our duties and ensuing public confidence.”

But others view the decisions as dangerous infringements on religious freedoms.

Andrew Bennett, director of the religious freedom institute at the Christian-based think-tank Cardus, said the rulings could affect other so-called public-interest professions, including medicine, and could be broadened to include other religious schools.

He said the Supreme Court affirmed the notion of an “imagined conflict” between sexual and religious identities. “This is not a question of religious identity, it’s not a question of sexual identity. It’s a question of fundamental freedoms, and also about the freedom to live your faith publicly,” he said.

According to Gerald D. Chipeur, Q.C. of Miller Thomson LLP, the court’s rulings create “significant limitation[s] on the rights of all Canadians to freedom of religion.”

Furthermore, he opined that the rulings have created a system in which “anyone who is making decisions regarding the rights of others” can now “violate the religious freedoms of Canadians.”

Cheryl Milne, executive director of the David Asper Centre for Constitutional Rights at the University of Toronto, also expressed concerns that the court’s rulings have created a precedent in which quasi-judicial bodies can now make controversial decisions.

“Everything from residential tenancies are impacted,” she said. “People’s lives can be significantly impacted by the decisions made by administrators, whether that’s tribunals that have hearings, or individuals that are reviewing applications for things, or ruling on complaints.”

There are plenty of other law schools that LGBT students could attend that do not subscribe to religious philosophies that may frown upon their lifestyles, but rather than show tolerance to all viewpoints, including those of Christians, the state once again sees it fit to control private institutions and punish them for failing to adhere to the state’s moral standards.

Critics of the court’s rulings note that it underscores Canada’s growing intolerance for diversity. Janet Epp Buckingham, a TWU professor who helped develop the law school proposal, observed, “We feel that this is a loss for diversity in Canada. Canada has traditionally upheld values of diversity for a broad array of religious views. So we’re very disappointed in the way the Supreme Court of Canada has ruled today.” – source

Justin Trudeau is the darling of the Marxist/Leftist Liberals.  He is Canada’s Obama.  His predecessor, Stephen Harper, was a firm Conservative and a true friend to Israel.  I am quite certain that the grimy finger prints of George Soros would most assuredly be found if one peeled back the layers leading up to Trudeau’s election.

But let’s not go there.  My stomach is churning enough as I write this piece.

Brethren, the enemy of our souls is bringing his minions against us from every front.  But we must not fear or become discouraged!

We must continue to pray for those in authority and above all else, we must always remember that God is truly in control.  Even when things look darkest – our God is never surprised.  He is omniscient – all knowing – and that means that He knows every event which will unfold in the coming years.

He has us in His hand.

“Fear not, for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you,
Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand”  (Isaiah 41:10).

How Can I Be Saved?

Shalom b’Yeshua

MARANATHA!

  1. i loved your article so much truth, yes we are in the last days as in the days of noah where so much evil and corruption is where what is wrong to do before God, satan has deceived people it is the right thing to do such as same sex marriages and divorce we are the last generations and hopefully we all will see jesus come back in the clouds to end all of this corruptions and evil
    WE THE PEOPLE’ HAVE THE POWER OF OUR VOICES AND OUR VOTES, TO VOTE OUT THE ENTIRE LYING,CORRUPT, TREASONOUS DEMOCRAT PARTY COME NOV 2018, VOTE TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN AND TO END ALL CORRUPTIONS IN WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT SHARE WITH OTHERS

  2. They need to aggressively appeal and publicly denounce the decision for 2 reasons.:
    1. If the court wants to hold up the right of ALL persons, then they have to respect the right of freedom of religion – the only reason stuff like this happens is the aggressive LBGTQ etc activists deliberately apply knowing the school’s standards in order to force the school either out of teaching law, or complying to their wishes. This is much like the case of the Christian baker in US who wouldn’t bake a cake for 2 homos wedding. We see it on other fronts as well, like the disabled activists who complain about an apartment for rent (for instance in a house) that doesn’t have ramps etc – because the house is 100 yr old! They don’t care who they destroy financially or otherwise it’s all about their cause.
    2. They need to remind the court that there’ no way any court would come down with any decision that would attack Muslim beliefs, and if all are equal, then no other belief system should have to be forced to go against their deeply held beliefs.
