In Ma, Governor Deval Patrick marched in the Boston parade this weekend. Providence, RI also has a big gay pride parade but the governor is pro-life so he doesn’t march in the parade. Cape Cod, Worcester and Springfield MA also have gay pride parades. Utah just had a large gay pride parade that was pictured in the newspapers.

Pictures are being posted at Mass Resistance. I can’t post the site with the pictures of the governor marching because as usual there are many nude people in the parade.

Why should any child be allowed to attend these events considering the smount of nudity and language. In such a community setting, I just wonder why the parents are not charged with “contributing to the delinguency of a minor”?
 
I started a tread about a very similar topic a while back. Its not limited to events like the Gay Pride parade but focuses more on the everyday outrage that we endure.

You may want to take a look at the thread, it appears that there are many of us who generally are concerned about where society is heading 😦
 
Gay Pride week in my city is always called a “family event”, but it is sheer disgusting (I live downtown, so it is hard to avoid it).

Wow…there are nude people in this parade?:eek: Huh.

I am not sure why a parent would take his/her child to the parade, but most likely…it is to seem tolerant and accepting. If he/she doesn’t seem agreeable, maybe the child will abandon his/her parents…just a thought. I think many parents who have gay children, get concerned over these things…because if they seem disapproving, they won’t see their kids…or won’t see them often.

I wouldn’t take my child to a gay pride parade…I unconditionally love my kids, but I’m not willing to seem like I advocate that lifestyle.
 
Whatevergirl’s comments make me think of something. When you mention parents bringing their children, are these adult children who are homosexual, or young kids? The former is questionable, but the latter is disgusting!

Interesting that gays and lesbians talk about being “normal” and that SSM is just “two people who love each other”, and some folks show up to the Gay Pride Parade nekkid? Decent people wear clothes in public. I wonder if more conservative gay people feel embarassed and ashamed of their more flamboyant brethren? Do they resent them and feel they are hurting gays from getting wider public acceptance?

Sounds like deviant behavior to me! 😦

Because the concept of “delinquency of a minor” only applies if you accept traditional Judeo-Christian standards of morality, something which the “gay pride” movement has been working very hard for decades to minimize, suppress, and destroy. They have to, or they will never get the “acceptance” they so desperately seek.

And, they appear to be winning, with the help of the left and the new religion of Political Correctness; so, things like “delinquency of a minor” and “public indencency” are on their way out—along with 98% of our other social laws, because all those laws are based on Judeo-Christian concepts, which, as I just pointed out, Our Many Detractors are working very hard to suppress.

Within 25 years (or less), it will be against the law to say anything against sexual deviancy, or to say anything positive about the Christian Faith; the Christian Faith will likely be underground, harrassed, pursued, and persecuted by the Sexual Correctness Police.

Laugh if you want to. Ridicule me if you like. Scoff if it’ll make you feel better. But mark my words. There will inevitably be those who will roll their eyes and say, “That will never happen here—you’re talking science fiction”.

And that’s exactly what they said in Russia in 1914, and Germany in 1920.

“Never happen here.”
 
I think many people simply don’t think or care about what the parade really means. They just think–oh a fun thing to do in the city. Sigh. Same reason why people take children to “Mardis gras” parades–those that have NOTHING to do with the real purpose of preparation for Lent.

In my lovely city, we have naked “dykes on bikes”, the S & M crowd who march in full regalia, and the drag queen contingent. Lots of nudity, lots of lewd acts, lots of parents and kids. It’s like witnessing pagan Rome.

It is already happening. 25 years? I say even closer than that. You can get sued or even fired if you being intolerable to sexual deviance. Christians are openly mocked and we are not allowed to truly speak out on our beliefs without being shunned. If you look at Catholicism right now it is not only okay to to ridicule us but sometimes expected. So it starts with catholics but it wont stop there soon it will be all Christians and than other religions, Judaism, Hinduism etc.

So Laugh never, worry yes, but fear never. The evil may seem like it is winning, but we don’t need to fear, we have already read the ending of the story. Good wins in the end.🙂 👍
 
Whenever we know of a gay rights parade we avoided the area. I did make a serious error in judgment in this regard. We were in the area of Braadway and Clark on the near North side of Chicago. Those who know the area remember it as a place for good family dining up until about 20 years ago. Then the gays invaded and its a nasty area. The last time we went I happened into a gay “artsy fartsy” store. (How does one describe one of these places?) The people looked sad and drunk or high or something and the articles for sale were pure smut. My son was a young teen at the time. He has often asked me why I took him into such a place.

At first I didn’t know for sure what it was. When I discovered what it was I thought for a minute that such a nasty place would immunize my son from ever thinking that that lifestyle was anything but horrible. It was so bad that I changed my mind and got us both out of there.

My son has asked why I would ever take him into such a place. He is immunized from such garbage but I still wish I had not taken him into such a place. Yuck!

When Christ told His followers…‘the world will hate you because it hated me first…’ I always think of today’s society…mocking Him. Mocking us Christians, namely Catholics. I actually am humbled when I am mocked…because Jesus said this would happen. It’s when society accepts and applauds you, is when you need to be concerned…most likely, they are applauding sin, and making it look positive. I believe in loving the sinner, and disliking the sin…only in love, can we hope to reflect Christ’s love to the world.

When good is painted as evil…and evil is painted as good…
 
Thanks melensdad for the link…

Caesar,

Exactly, They are called “family events”. I am sure they have balloons and face painting but they are exposing these young kids.

From Mass Resistance Blog. Again I can’t post link because of nudity.

There were many children on the parade route who viewed this – most were probably children of “GLBT parents”.

As a parent I regret I let my teens all go to a Rocky Horror Picture Show at my local theater. I had no clue what it was about. I saw the ads but I thought it was a Halloween type fun activity. I found out years later what it was.

This is an act of violence upon the child. We are reaping the whirlwind as we speak.

If this is true (and i believe it is.) then when push comes to shove all of us must strive for sainthood and many of us may have to accept our own martyrdom!
When things like this start to happen it rarely stops at being so passive aggressive as you describe.

You think thats bad-try Gay Day at Disneyland! A co-worker let me know how he and his husband were going to celebrate “GayDay at Disneyland” I had never heard of such a thing. Needless to say I looked up on the internet and boy was I surprised. I asked a lady I work with if she had ever heard of it she hadn’t, she was so surprised she started crying.They wear shirts with the “Gay Day at Disneyland 2006” slogan and they all wear red. Red for Aids awarness. Disneyland does not have anything to do with it. I guess they do this at lots of amusement parks. Imagine showing up on that day!
 
It wouldn’t be so bad if thats all it was. But the pictures of some of the people behaving indecent at Disneyland. You have to see it to believe it. Guys with no shirts rubbing eachother’s chest.And thats not all folks!
 
I’m resentful that the gay movement has co-opted the word “pride” for themselves and along with it the word “gay” and the use of the rainbow as a symbol of their so-called inclusion.

One of my closest friend has SSA and embraces the lifestyle. She is traveling to San Franciso for “Pride Weekend” next week. Please keep her, and her girlfriend in your prayers. I pray that one day my friend will come back to the Church.

I went to college in San Francisco and went to “Castro Halloween.” It wasnt a Halloween celebration, it was a lot of naked people parading around. What I saw isnt even appropirate to type but it was shocking. It was certainly nothing to be proud of. AIDs and HIV awareness is one thing, parading around naked is another.

I understand people choosing to “live the lifestyle” want to make sure the rest of society knows they are not hiding in the closet when it comes to their choices. But why they feel sexual preference is something to be “proud of” boggles my mind. If, as many of them claim, SSA is biological, then why be proud of it???

The folks who should be proud are the ones with SSA who choose to live a life of chastity. Persons with SSA living chaste lives are people we should all be proud of.

Sincerely,

Maria1212

This is not new at Disney World. It has been going on since** June 1990. **People have been discussed with Disney for awhile. It started in Magic Kingdom for one day and has expanded to a week-long event at Pleasure Island, Water Parks of Disney, Hard Rock of Universal and many hotels. They just held it - 1st week in June.

The nudity is something the gay community uses. When Adam and Eve sinned, they hid from God. They felt shame. Shame was an intrusion. Fr. Thomas Loya(Eastern Rite) discusses that this shame had a good side, a protection from the sins of lust and concupiscence.(CD- The Gift of Sexuality)

Imagine feeling shame when you stand naked taking a shower. Adam felt shame before God.

The gay community wants us to believe that when they are naked they are innocent as if back in the Garden of Eden. We are no longer in the Garden.
