“We have offered support and counselling for those learners,” she added. She said the department was not aware of a second visit by the pastor during which he allegedly described sangomas as witches.
Explaining the department’s policy on religion in schools, she said people were allowed to have freedom of expression, but at the same time principals were warned to be cautious when dealing with controversial topics that could hurt people’s feelings.The pastor, in an interview with the radio station later, denied making derogatory remarks about the LGBTI+ community when he was there on Friday.
Michael Swain, executive director of Freedom of Religion SA, said in a statement on Tuesday that the report raised questions about what religious speakers can and cannot say at schools. On the line between free speech and hate speech he said:"The constitutional right to free speech is a very broad right that includes opinions and ideas that people do not like, do not agree with, or even find offensive.
Shame little snow flakes. The Pastor was right. Read your Bible.
Shame
It’s they are going to hell as the Bible says
Well he wasn't lying tho. The bible condemns gayness.
Christians are the most judgemental and their faith asks them not to judge. He should have never went to that school. Not all faiths sent you to hell. Some just turn into energy and float away.
That's 100% true Amen
Mello drama
It's true no counseling needed there just repentance
The pastor was teaching the bible from the book of Romans 1:18-32
The pastor has the evidence from the same source that outlaws theft and murder, so present proof that he is wrong or shut up. gofigure
Is he lying?
