OPINION:
The president has declared that we celebrate LGBTQ during the month of June. Count me out.
I am not going to denigrate the institution of marriage between a man and woman, which has endured for thousands of years. I reject and am appalled by the grotesque mutilation of children’s genitalia. I find disgusting the presentation of drag queens to children.
It is particularly vexatious that my Christian faith is ridiculed by ugly presentations of preening and cavorting nuns and live theater mocking Jesus on the cross. I am disturbed that we are witnessing a horrific phenomenon in our society that seeks to abolish the distinction of man and woman and to transcend the limitations by God and nature. This demonic movement reveals a striking moral sickness that threatens the values most Americans hold dear.
In particular, I am keenly aware that the word “evil” is an emotion-laden term that requires judicious use. However, I can’t think of a better descriptor for the surgical procedures now practiced in several hospitals in the United States upon the most vulnerable — something we euphemistically label restorative justice, gender-affirming care or harm reduction.
No, the month of June is not the time for celebration. Instead, it is a time for mourning. The LGBTQ rainbow colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet hide the blackness of the political left’s goals and agenda. Our country is suffering from the grips of evil, and the faster we realize this, the better.
In our society, where truth is being intentionally veiled by deceitful political smoke, we must take a bold stand in the name of faith against this false narrative. It is past time for America to wake up and expose the satanic, poisonous lies bombarding us. The truth shall set you free.
