Catholic schools in Ontario ban rainbows

The Catholic School board, it started as a private school system, for catholic people.
Why should the rest of the people bother them. Go to your choice of other school.
Go to a Muslim school and start talk against their belief. We do abuse much of our
freedom in this country.

BIGOTS I am so sick of hypocrits and right wing christian bigots...Grow up..Most of the priests are closet cases..Ontario is no place for this type of bigotry...Take it to the US...they like bigots and KKK and tea partyers and republican trash..

This is going way too far!!! banning rainbows SO STUPID, they are part of nature nothing more. I love them, This is why I will NEVER EVER send my children to a Catholic school.

And here I thought God Almighty put the (rain)bow in the sky! Well, at least God's not worried.

I was raised Catholic and always will be Catholic, but I was taught to love others no matter what. I honestly don't understand where this hate, especially from those who claim to be Christian, came from. Certainly not from God. God is love and that's all he ever will be. He doesn't tell us to hate one another; I personally know plenty of respectful and caring people who have nothing to do with religion, and plenty more who claim to be Christian but are nothing but rude. I despise the fact that people use religion as an excuse to hurt others. "Oh, well, I have God on my side..." Yea, that really makes your argument so much more valid... not! Please think about how you act may affect others lives, because the way you act does affect others lives. Thank you, and have a nice day.

Cool, the Catholic church itself is banning God, because lets face it, God makes rainbows everytime it rains

Good for Catholic schools for standing up to bullying from the Gay & Lesbian lobby groups! School is for learning the 3 Rs, not for flaunting one's sexuality on other children. As for those people calling the schools "bigotted", I find it ironic that they themselves are completely intolerant about other people's right to their own religious and moral views! I myself am not at all religious, but I definitely support the rights of others to believe in whatever god, saviour, demon or spirit they want to believe in.

SAD, SAD, SAD. I was brought up catholic and with all that has gone on over the years, I do not practice nor wish to. Sent my children to catholic schools, what a mistake. They certainly do not practice what they preach. Worst bunch of hypocrites if there ever were any.Can't help but wonder what my 5 year old granddaughter that attends a catholic school and does nothing but draw rainbows will do. I can only imagine that she'll be reprimanded for this. This is the same child that when asked to paint a self portrait, yep, you guessed it, drew a rainbow. How sad the system is making it for everyone. Think I'll change the designation on my property taxes to public system.

Alan Turing was a gay man who helped decode Nazi Secrets for the British. You know how he was treated? Because he was a "sodomite" he was told that he would be chemically castrated OR thrown in jail (gee wonder what happens to gays in prison?)

This Patriot was an obvious contrast to the Catholic Church who ENDORSED the Fascist Dictatorships of Franco, Mussolini and (drumroll) HITLER!

If your homophobic, then your an unpatriotic traitor who WANTS the Nazis to win, you are disgraceful INSULT to our freedom, our veterans and you must be dealt with like any other who commits TREASON!

Of public money is used by any Catholic School, then they cannot infringe the students freedom of speech. And that means Rainbows. Its funny to me that if Homosexuality was so important an issue, why did Jesus not address it directly? The word "homosexual" in English translations of the Bible:
Outside of the conservative wings of religions, the word "homosexual" generally refers to sexual orientation. People have one of three orientations:

Most are heterosexual: they are sexually attracted only to members of the opposite sex.
A minority are homosexual: they are sexually attracted only to members of the same sex.
A smaller minority are bisexual: they are attracted to both men and women, but not necessarily to the same degree.

The term "homosexual" dates from the late 19th century, when human sexuality first began to be studied as a science.

There is no term that means homosexual orientation in the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek texts of the Bible. The authors of the Bible did not understand sexual orientation and thus did not write about it. Thus, when you see one of these words in an English translation of the Bible, it is important to dig deeper and find what the original Hebrew or Greek text really means.

Sounds like a human rights violation to me. They should be able to donate to any charity of their choice. I'd fight that one...

If God makes rainbows, how can it be wrong? Being gay is not a choice, but how one is born. They say God doesn't make mistakes.

Kinda hypocritical of the catholic church to ban rainbows when they allow gay priests to diddle young boys. Just saying.

Remove the tax exemptions from all religions. Remove all public funding for all religious schools.

i suppose all of the priests ,bishops, catholic hockey coaches etc. who rape young boys are not homosexual otherwise the "infallible" pope would have to kick them out of their homophobic " church"

A rainbow? BLASPHEMY! Take it down!
Put up this cross with a dying dude nailed to it instead.
Much better.
Lol. So ridiculous.

Hangs his head in shame.... oh wait a minute, that's exactly what the RC church wants me to do.

I am not Gay and if people choose that,that is their perrogative.If choice is the avenue of the individual in our "free" world,why do we feel it is necessary to use info-neutral influences like schools to bandwagon gays or straights.We got too many other important things to be doing than this petty posturing.It won't matter if you are gay or straight or a eunich if you have no job,no safe environment,lousy dangerous food, no safe housing,genderless criminality,Diseases, Pollution,RadioActivity,Taxation of the people to the point of death and other things of vital importance.Cut the bandwagon crap from all sides.There are decent straights and gays as well as wretched ones.Take it out of all institutions and leave it to free people. .Lets rise above this to common ground of excellent dominion over this world we are responsible to maintain!

I am so tired of the hypocrisy of religion. Whats that commandment?, love thy neighbor, only if they're straight. No, that's not it.

wonder what would happen if some religious freak will got to a pride event and try to promote his ideas?
probably will be ridiculed, spit upon and chased off.
Catholic schools follow religious doctrine, if one does not agree with that, go to non-religious school.
nobody is forced to go to a Catholic school.
