Vancouver, Canada, Mar 6, 2020 / 08:19 pm (CNA).- A Vancouver-based bicycling charity broke a long-standing partnership with a local Knights of Columbus group this week and rejected their donations of bikes over the Knight’s “anti-LGBTQ+” beliefs, The B.C. Catholic reported.
“I’m sad that religious intolerance seems to be getting in the way of getting bikes to poor people,” Graham Darling, the spokesman for the local Knights council, told The B.C. Catholic.
The PEDAL Society is a non-profit that recycles and refurbishes used bicycles, and also provides education in bike mechanics to the community. Darling said the society called to let him know that the organization would no longer accept bikes donated by the Knights because the group is “anti-LGBTQ+”.
The Knights had been donating bicycles in partnership with the organization since 2006, and Darling said that “no issues have ever arisen” in that time.
The donation section of the charity’s website does not mention a required ideological alignment in order for donations to be accepted. The group’s community agreement states that: “We believe that everyone deserves respect. While using the resources of Our Community Bikes, we ask that you respect the diversity of folks who use the space and treat each other with care and dignity.”

I could use a bike.
Remember the joke about the blonde who keeps reminding herself to breathe?
What does that mean or translate to?
Afraid the kids will catch morality off the bicycle seats.
Hongcouver is in competition with Hogtown (Tranna) and Frogtown (Montreal), to see which city is the second most F’ed up in Kanadahar. Pretty much a three way tie, from what I can see!
Of course, as long as True-dope remains as the Prime Mistake of Canada, the clear (queer?) winner is Ennui-on-the-Rideau, aka d’Ottawa.
Great...sell em yourself...take the money to support the true believers and others in real dire straits(believers or not).
If a person decides not to accept the theology of the lGBTQ lifestyle and avoid the problem, they are called a homophobe and considered bad people. If an LGBTQ organization decides not to accept the loving charity from a Christian organization that believes in giving to them to help them like a good Christian people, does that make the refusing organization anti-religious and against the claim of being a religious organization since they can’t follow the doctrine of one because of their beliefs? Thus they are displaying they are not a religious organization as they have tried to imply. And their actions make them liars and by trying to use God are people of blasphemy.

Never underestimate the hypocrisy of the Left and all the lemmings that latch on to the “normality” of the LGBTQ aberrations.
The only positive thing to say is that they can't reproduce themselves.
WHY does such a SMALL, TINY, ITTY-BITTY, LITTLE group of people who are MISFITS, sinners, psychologically ill people get so much publicity?
Well, they will have to meet their Maker someday and explain to Him why did that.
Hopefully many will quit donating to these idiots.
That’s why they want to teach faggotry to the children.
I’m quite sure..I need a translation of your post...please.
Society’s slide is like watching a noose that slowly tightens around a neck. Severe persecution of Christians is coming.
Looks like that bicycling charity lacks tolerance.
What’s really funny is that the bigots are the ones refusing the bikes for the needy. How dare Catholics have convictions and beliefs that differ from perverts and mental deviates.
“Sorry, Timmy, we can’t let you have that bike. It was donated by a group of Christians who refuse to agree that one man putting his penis in another’s man’s anus is perfectly normal.”
Jesus wept.
“.... get so much publicity?”
Because they are a tool of the left used to challenge the right in the face of the voters. All races, especially black and latin, all religions, Catholic, Jewish, and evangelicals, levels of worth, the poor and helpless that includes immigrants that come from countries where they have nothing and the left gets them here to levy votes by promising things they can’t possible provide, making up lies about the conservative president and congress while giving the lib/socialist president a free walk in the park from crimes, lies, and harm, criminals that do harm but are from a tough early life so they are back on the street....not near done, but you get the point. It’s all a political tool. And it will work until the GOP stomps on them and demands proof of the BS they throw. But in my lifetime, they haven’t.
