The Left seems to be good at redefining words:

"Hate" used to mean having mean feelings for someone. Now, if you quote what the Lord said about homosexuality (Leviticus 18:22), the Left accuses you of hate speech.

"Racism" used to mean unfair treatment of a minority. Now, if you don't speak out against racism every time a Leftist tells you to, they consider you a racist.

FANS OF “SISTERS” ARE DISORDERED​

Most Americans are opposed to bigotry, against any demographic group. Anti-Catholicism, however, which is often called America’s oldest prejudice, is one of the few exceptions to the rule. As the Los Angeles Dodgers have proven, by reinviting the anti-Catholic hate group, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, the animus against Catholics is alive and well.

As the report we issued on the “Sisters” shows, these homosexual men dressed as nuns are a sick group.
The Catholic Church accepts homosexuals as children of God, but it also says that homosexual inclinations are “objectively disordered” and that homosexual acts are “intrinsically disordered.” The “Sisters” are living proof of just how disordered these men are.

As has been widely reported, the Dodgers reinvited the “Sisters,” after they previously disinvited them from Pride Night, June 16. But they did more than that. They issued an apology for disinviting them in the first place. No apology, or outreach, was extended to Catholics. Thus did the Dodgers put their official stamp of approval on anti-Catholicism.

How many queers hate Catholics? It’s hard to say, but it is clear beyond a shadow of a doubt that many gays and trans persons in the Los Angeles area do. That is why it was reported that many “Los Angeles LGBTQ organizations” support the reinstatement of the “Sisters.” This includes LA Pride and the Los Angeles LGBT Center.

Local government officials also hate Catholics. Rep. Robert Garcia, a Democrat, said the decision to disinvite the “Sisters” was “shameful” and done to “divide and separate our community.” Rep. Jimmy Gomez, a Democrat, said he strongly supports them. Ashleigh Aitken, a Democrat, the mayor of Anaheim, is another big fan. The ACLU of Southern California, a proverbial hater of Catholics, also sided with the “Sisters.”

No one in the media spilled more vitriol against Catholics than Mike Freeman of USA Today. He defended the “Sisters,” accusing Sen. Marco Rubio and me—not the bigoted drag queens—of promoting hate.:rolleyes:

As we previously stated, we are asking Catholics in the Los Angeles area not to attend the June 16 game where the “Sisters” will be honored. Next week we will announce the next round of Catholics whom we will be contacting to boycott this game.

Remember that Satan is the father of lies. How much easier it is to lie if we redefine the meaning of words.

A good working definition of insanity is to be separated from reality. And what is the ultimate reality? God!

If we recall the story of the Garden of Eden, where Eve was tempted by the serpent, he told Eve that she surely would not die as God promised, if she ate of the forbidden fruit, but she would, in fact, become like God, i.e., being able to define her own truths and rules. How like so many who have turned away from God on the left!

The left is driven by Marxist ideology, which envisions replacing God with the state (government), so they attack religion wherever and however they can get away with it.

I think they have had a very effective plan to undermine and destroy our rights, freedoms, and prosperity. First, they took control over the educational system and stopped truly educating the students. They indoctrinate them now. Then, they took over the national media. The media can then reinforce the Marxist indoctrination that the schools brainwash the students with. Finally, they got control over the government (at least the Democrats) through coruption, buying them off and making them rich.

It is my hope and belief that God will shake this country, and the rest of the world, mightily, not as punishment, but as an act of charity to get us back on the right path and open our eyes to the truth (Him!).

If someone is quoting the bible to promote discrimination, prejudice or violence then it IS hate. If the motivation for quoting the bible is to marginalize and dehumanize a minority, then it is hate.

"Racism" used to mean unfair treatment of a minority. Now, if you don't speak out against racism every time a Leftist tells you to, they consider you a racist.
Why would any good person need to be asked to speak out against racism?

It's interesting how you are decrying hate and prejudice while using slurs.

God told us that homosexuality is an abomination. Is there some reason we don't want people to know this?

First we overlook evil.
Then we permit evil.
Then we legalize evil.
Then we promote evil.
Then we celebrate evil.
Then we persecute those who still choose to call it - evil!

So far this year over 500 anti LGBT bills have been introduced into state legislatures.
Including one Gov Desantis just signed into law allowing "any medical provider, including doctors, nurses, ambulance drivers, pharmacists, mental health professionals, or lab technicians, as well as nursing home workers and hospital administrators, may refuse to provide care to patients that are or are perceived to be LGBT.

So I guess it is OK for government officials to promote hate.

You give no source, no evidence, no links. Government officials have the responsibility of promoting rights, it is not their responsibility to give more rights to the alphabet crowd than anybody else, especially when if comes to child abuse, which is what all the transgender ideology is about.
What you are doing here is fake news to support your pro-LGBT agenda, because the bill signed by DeSantis SAYS NO SUCH THING.

Florida state bill DB 254 will restrict gender-affirming healthcare for transgender people under the age of 18, allowing the state to take temporary custody over any child who receives such treatment.

"Sex-reassignment prescriptions and procedures are prohibited for patients younger than 18 years of age," the legislation reads.
Gender-affirming care has been found to be associated with improved mental health of transgender adolescents and teenagers, according to research in the New England Journal of Medicine and JAMA Pediatrics.
House Bill 1069 will expand the Parental Rights in Education law, dubbed the "Don't Say Gay" law by critics. The new measure will restrict classroom instruction on gender identity or sexual orientation from prekindergarten through grade 8. From grades 9 through 12, such content must be "age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards." However, the Florida Board of Education had already voted to expand the restriction from kindergarten through 12th grade.

House Bill 1521 will require transgender people to use the bathrooms that correspond with their gender assigned at birth.

A 2018 study from the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law found no evidence that laws requiring transgender people to use the bathroom of their gender at birth lead to decreases in safety or privacy violations.

Senate Bill 1438 prohibits minors from attending any "adult live performances," which may impact drag performances.

Should medical personnel lose their license to practice for refusing to do something immoral? The law allows any medical provider — including doctors, nurses, ambulance drivers, pharmacists, mental health professionals, lab technicians, nursing home workers, and hospital administrators — as well as insurance companies and payment entities, the right to deny care on the basis of any conscientious objection.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have reinvited the anti-Catholic homosexual drag group, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.

Last week, after the Catholic League enlisted the support of its followers to contact Rob Manfred, Commissioner of Major League Baseball (MLB), the “Sisters” were disinvited from attending the “10 Annual LGBTQ+ Night” event; they were to be given a Community Hero Award.

The Dodgers have now officially endorsed anti-Catholic bigotry. Catholics don’t need any lectures from Stan Kasten, the president and CEO of the Dodgers, on the need to be “inclusive.” The man is a phony—he has no problem excluding Catholics from his selective world of inclusivity.

The Dodgers not only reinvited the bigoted drag queens, they apologized to them.

In a statement released to the press, the Dodgers said they had “much thoughtful feedback from our diverse communities, honest conversations within the Los Angeles Dodgers organization and generous discussions with the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.” On May 22, the “Sisters” met with Kasten and LGBTQ organizations, as well as local government officials.

There was no indication that Catholic leaders, clergy or lay, were invited to participate in these “honest conversations.” Only one side was listened to—the side that sponsors hate speech. The fact that gay and trans leaders agree with the vulgar anti-Catholic rhetoric and behavior of the “Sisters” means they now have no moral leg to stand on when asking for an end to bigotry against them.

Knowing full well how the ruling class in this country can no longer be trusted, I told my staff yesterday that it wouldn’t surprise me if MLB and the Dodgers reversed course. To that end, I personally went through our files on the “Sisters” and prepared a report on them. To read it, click here.

I would love to sit down with Kasten and Manfred after they have read the report and ask them how can they possibly defend such an obscene anti-Catholic group. No decent person could possibly defend such a vicious assault on Catholic sensibilities.

Our next step is to persuade Catholics in the Los Angeles area not to attend Pride Night on June 16. By boycotting this event, we can send a message to the Dodgers, and to Major League Baseball, that anti-Catholic bigotry is unacceptable.

To this end, we will send the report to every parish in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles.

We will contact Kasten, but this decision had to have had the blessings of Manfred.

God lists over 90 abominations. What is your motivation for focusing on just this one?
Ha! Probably because right now , in our ‘today’ , that is where the world is focussed , it’s hard to ignore ! It’s “ in our face “….

praise the Lord as Psalms says -
“ I have set the Lord always before my face , He is at my right hand , I shall not be moved “.

Gays dont reproduce, they recruit.

Let me show you something.. TinMan.

SEX, is a God created situation.
its designed first and foremost to "replenish the species".
That is the #1 Reason that God created Sexual Intercourse.

See, if there is no Sexual Intercourse between a man and a woman, as its designed to be, by GOD... as 'Husband and wife", or even as fornication.... then the human race becomes = extinct.
No more Babies.
Understand?

This is the 1st Law of Nature = replenish the species. Make BABIES.

Now, i'll prove to you that homosexual sex, or homosexuality, is "against nature".

Here is what you do....

Take all the Homosexuals , male and female......and put them on 2 separate safe and secure Islands .
Gay males on one
Gay females on the other.

On both islands, they have to STAY there.

Now, give them shelter, food, medicine, entertainment, water,.........everything they want and need to support their lives, keep them alive, and satisfied.

Now, go back in 100 yrs.
What do you find?
They are Extinct.
Nature has spoken against them. Condemned what is unnatural, to end.

Why?

= NO BABIES.

A.) Because GAYS can't Reproduce the species..........= their SEX LIFE can't reproduce the Species.

See that?

This makes GAY SEX that is HOMOSEXUALITY as a LIFESTYLE, = unnatural, and also according to God, Perversion.

Most people don't really care if an adult wanrs to engage iin homosexual abomination.

Most of the bills you are referring to involve the protection of CHILDREN. I'm tired of all of the lies being proliferated by the media and people like YOU, who misrepresent the genuine concerns of parents not wanting their small chilfren groomed or sexualized as being"Homophobic".

As for a blatantly anti-Christian Hate Group being honored by the Dodgers for their "charity" work - this is insane.
The Ku Klux Klan has done charity work for their communitied for decades.
Thw Drug Cartels have soup kitchens and homesless aid.
The Nazis did many things to help theoir communituies.
Al Capone was famous for helping the hungry and homeless during the Depression.

Should we honor thhem??

A Hate Group is a Hate Group and should be treated as such.

when i quoted the law I forgot to link it. My bad. Here

Government officials have the responsibility of promoting rights, it is not their responsibility to give more rights to the alphabet crowd than anybody else,
how is being able to access medical care an "extra" right?
especially when if comes to child abuse, which is what all the transgender ideology is about.
Child sexual abuse is committed almost exclusively by heterosexual males. Link

What you are doing here is fake news to support your pro-LGBT agenda, because the bill signed by DeSantis SAYS NO SUCH THING.
That is exactly what is says: SB 1580
any medical provider, including doctors, nurses, ambulance drivers, pharmacists, mental health professionals, or lab technicians, as well as nursing home workers and hospital administrators, may refuse to provide care to patients that are or are perceived to be LGBT.



Florida state bill DB 254 will restrict gender-affirming healthcare for transgender people under the age of 18, allowing the state to take temporary custody over any child who receives such treatment.
Sounds like a communist police state.
"Sex-reassignment prescriptions and procedures are prohibited for patients younger than 18 years of age," the legislation reads.
Gender-affirming care has been found to be associated with improved mental health of transgender adolescents and teenagers, according to research in the New England Journal of Medicine and JAMA Pediatrics.
So Florida has outlawed something that helps and improves the lives of the transgendered.
House Bill 1069 will expand the Parental Rights in Education law, dubbed the "Don't Say Gay" law by critics. The new measure will restrict classroom instruction on gender identity or sexual orientation from prekindergarten through grade 8. From grades 9 through 12, such content must be "age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards." However, the Florida Board of Education had already voted to expand the restriction from kindergarten through 12th grade.
The expanded version actually forces teachers to actively lie to students and present anti LGBT disinformation as facts. I suppose you can't expect kids to grow up to hate a minority if they are taught the truth.
House Bill 1521 will require transgender people to use the bathrooms that correspond with their gender assigned at birth.


Quick quiz:
What bathroom should he use?
6bc5a42c02f81fbbdff88e87fa65f0b8f196e2ae.jpg


A 2018 study from the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law found no evidence that laws requiring transgender people to use the bathroom of their gender at birth lead to decreases in safety or privacy violations.
I'm going to go out on a limb and guess you didn't actually read this.
Senate Bill 1438 prohibits minors from attending any "adult live performances," which may impact drag performances.
Why would minors be going to any adult live performance?
