Josh Alexander, 16, is not allowed to attend school for the rest of the year after saying he would continue to express his belief that God created only two genders. The school told him his presence would be “detrimental to the physical and mental well-being” of transgender students, Alexander told The Epoch Times.
He told St. Joseph’s Catholic High School in Renfrew, Ontario, he would not intentionally engage or start conflicts with transgender students, but he would continue to express his belief. He and his lawyer are bringing this matter to an Ontario human rights tribunal, calling it religious discrimination.
“Offence is obviously defined by the offended. I expressed my religious beliefs in class and it spiraled out of control,” Alexander said. “Not everybody’s going to like that. That doesn’t make me a bully. It doesn’t mean I’m harassing anybody. They express their beliefs and I express mine. Mine obviously don’t fit the narrative.”
He hasn’t attended school since November, when he was first suspended. He had organized a protest against transgender students using the girls’ washrooms. Alexander said he launched the demonstration after two girls at his school confided in him that they were uncomfortable sharing bathrooms with biological males.
He had also said in class discussions that there are only two, immutable genders.
A Catholic school, Gentle Reader. A Catholic school. Yes, it happened in Canada, not the U.S., but where will it happen next?
Where is Cardinal Collins? Where is the Holy See?
Excuse me while I froth at the mouth and convulse for a while. Oh wait: there’s this too:
Prostitutes are now soliciting johns next to a St. Anthony’s K-8 Catholic grade school in Oakland all hours of the day after Governor Newsom signed a law ending loitering arrests for prostitution.
Last summer the Democrat governor signed a state law that prevents police from arresting sex workers loitering for prostitution.
So now the prostitutes are walking around scantily clad and in some even naked next to children and the police can’t make any arrests thanks to Gavin Newsom.
Would the Vatican please put California under Interdict? It’s high time.

I smell a huge, very profitable lawsuit in the offing, assuming his parents have the intestinal fortitude to pursue it. That it has not happened yet means either his parents are fearful wusses or, perhaps, they’re still interviewing attorneys.
There will be either a massive judgement against the school, or a judicial decision that “saying humans exist in only two sexes is wrong.”
Either outcome would be enlightening.
The Vatican cannot be relied upon to do the right thing. Francis is both weak, and unable to exert his lawful authority.
