Senate OKs gay conversion therapy ban (NM Dem Legislature on a roll)
The Albuquerque Journal ^ | February 16, 2017 | Dan McKay and Dan Boyd

SANTA FE – A bill that would make New Mexico the latest state to limit gay conversion therapy is headed to the state House.

The Senate approved the bill 32-6 Thursday, after several Republican senators questioned whether it would target religious teachings. Sen. Jacob Candelaria, D-Albuquerque, the sponsor of Senate Bill 121 and the first openly gay man to be elected to the Senate, insisted it would not, saying it would merely make it illegal to be paid for providing conversion therapy to someone under 18 years old.

... make it illegal to be paid for providing conversion therapy to someone under 18 years old.

Not sure how that would work but it appears a therapist could not be paid for providing that service.

The Democratic controlled legislature is passing all the radical progressive left-wing legislation it can. RINO Governor Martinez will no doubt veto some of it but not all. That not approved by her will make up ammunition for next year's governors race. If the Rats win that race, we can expect a return to former Governor Richardson's policy of supporting all things liberal, including doing the enviro-nazis bidding to shut down as much as possible the fossil fuel industry which pays for one-third of NM's tax revenue.

The two statements do not mutually exclude one another. If you tithe to the church isn't that "paying"? Well, to a normal person, no...to a fabulous lawmaker, he will fill the loophole down the road and throw priests/pastors in jail or fine churches out of existence.

Prove me wrong, Senator Homo. the history of your lavender mafia's agenda doesn't help your case.

What’s going on here? Is New Mexico running out of homosexuals or something?

if a person has a disease or makes life choices that are very very unhealthy, why oppose somebody trying to change that process?...

homosexuality is very unhealthy emotionally and physically, and it also carries with it a high propensity for domestic violence, drug abuse, and alcohol abuse....

In all 50 states it should be LEGAL to strike a protester if the driver feels his/her life is in danger.

up next:
Calling discussion of Holy Scripture a “therapy of gay conversion”.

Churches will be subject to state approval.

Watch.

No They want all children to be mentally and morally confused. That is why all the Marxist “gender” theory promotion and “homosexual” marriage—a Marxist created “word” to normalize the pederast’s “lifestyle” in the 1800s.

Germany was the forefront of the homosexual promotion (and raping of all the young boys), to normalize Ancient Babylonian worldview (Freemasonry—sex magic) so that little boys could be groomed into desiring men—like the Afghanis today-—a totally homosexual culture where boy harems are reminiscent of the ole Spartan days and the Samurai with a total hate of women and brutal treatment of woman and children, esp. little boys. Got to train them to be perverts.

All bahaviors are learned—particularly vile, degrading, unnatural ones like sodomy and bestiality. When you desacralize the sex act and make it meaningless and remove it from true marriage-—everything is “Good” again.

As Dostoevsky stated, Without God, everything is permissible.

The move right now is to make pedophilia and pederasty “normal” again-—using others as Means-—to normalize Marxist/socialist worldview and eliminate Christian worldview in children where humans have to be used with dignity and respect always.

For baby-killing (sacrifice) and pederasty and cannibalism and blood sacrifices, the Freemasons/illuminati/psychopathic elites have to have little children programmed into satanism where sodomy is a virtue, etc.

The APA was taken over by sodomites in 1970 to flip Good and Evil and normalize satanism for the NWO where all of us are Means to an End and can be killed or used in the most diabolical ways-—even babies (pizza-gate).

Yeah sure, just like gay marriage proponents swore up and down they wouldn’t go after anyone who dissagreed with their lifestyle- swore up and down they did- they ‘just wante to be happily married, and that was all’ accordign to them-

Tell that to the Christian bakers, florists, banner makers, wedding photographers who were all fined - some losing their businesses- because they didn’t violate their consciences by giving in to hte demands of gay couples

“I wonder how many in their govt have molested children.”

The former Governor Richardson here in New Mexico “allegedly” molested a young intern and paid a hefty sum to quiet the family. He also had/has ties to Epstein, flying on the Lolita Express to the pedophile island in the Caribbean. It is almost a certainty that many other local politicians close to him were involved as well. It’s just one branch of the so called “Pizzagate” ring.
