Affirmation of gender confusion leads children to become ‘the modern orphans of society,’ who are ‘experimented upon’ by ‘adults who really do not have the best interests of young people at heart,’ said Bishop Thomas Daly.
(LifeSiteNews) — Bishop Thomas Daly of Spokane, Washington, blasted the rise of LGBT ideology in Catholic education, calling it “tragic and sinful” in an interview with the National Catholic Register.
Daly, the chairman of Catholic Education Committee of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), condemned the erasure of parents’ rights at public schools in comments to the Register at the USCCB’s fall meeting in November.
He also noted that transgender ideology has become increasingly prevalent in Catholic schools and that some are even allowing students to “pick your own pronouns” under the pretense of “being affirming and welcoming.”
Gender ideology should have “no place” in schools, Daly told the Register, adding that it is particularly “tragic and sinful” when it permeates Catholic higher education institutions.
The Washington bishop addressed increasing LGBT identification among youth and said he believes that social media plays a “significant part” in the growth of gender confusion.
