The Catholic Register published a blistering editorial Thursday criticizing the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association for participating in next Sunday’s WorldPride parade in Toronto.

According to the Register, the Pride parade has “evolved into an X-rated rolling orgy of self-indulgence and hedonism.”

The editors write:

Ostensibly organized to promote equality and human rights, the Sunday parade is more notable for its public nudity, sexual role-playing and flaunting of common decency and morality. It is certainly no place for teens and children, nor for Catholic teachers or the union that represents them. 

Intentional or not, the union is sending out a loud message when it shrugs at Catholic values and gives bishops the brush off. It’s a message of renunciation surely heard by a secular society that questions the value of Catholic education, and it’s a message of rebellion likely to trickle down through teachers to impressionable children and teens.
