Dodgers, Kershaw announce ‘Christian Faith’ event amid Pride fallout
KTLA ^ | May 26, 2023 | Marc Sternfield

Posted on 05/26/2023 2:23:10 PM PDT by chrisinoc

The Los Angeles Dodgers and future Hall of Fame pitcher Clayton Kershaw have announced a “relaunch” of Christian Faith and Family Day.

The announcement comes after the Dodgers first invited, then uninvited, and then re-invited a group of self-described queer and trans “nuns” to be honored at the team’s Pride Night event in June.

“Excited to announce the relaunch of Christian Faith and Family Day at Dodger Stadium on July 30th,” Kershaw tweeted on Friday. “More details to come – but we are grateful for the opportunity to talk about Jesus and determined to make it bigger and better than it was before COVID. Hope to see you on July 30th!”

Not even Kershaw can save this Dodger disaster.

So they have an event that bashes Catholics, then to make up for it, they have an event that catholics are invited?

I understand that Kershaw is a good guy, but this sounds like pandering, just as the Budweiser ads in the wake of the Bud Light fiasco were pandering. No sale.

Is Kershaw going to attack trannies at this game? No. It would never be allowed.
Bud, these pedos want your kids, and you are going to tolerate this as a Christian?

Is the Dodger’s Owner the one who insists on inviting the Drag Queens? Somebody is being lectured to from the Trans Lobby, and very likely, never thought they would ever have to defend keeping that activity out of baseball, so they immediately fold under pressure, like Chris Christie’s beach chair.

Good for Kershaw, but I think it is a BAD idea. The Dodgers shouldn’t have ANY IDEOLOGY EXCEPT BASEBALL!!! They should not do Queer stuff or Christian stuff ... they should do BASEBALL STUFF and keep the “social issues” off the table.

The Babylon Bee had a piece announcing the Dodgers being the gayest team in sports, surpassing the Dallas Cowboys.

Amen -- Kershaw fails to see through the Dodgers ploy here. Bring back the Christians after we have made a HUGE display of our anti-Biblical, anti-traditional biases.

The Trans Nuns is Anti-Catholic Hate Speech sponsored by LA Dodgers.

No way to sugar coat it.

It’s almost as if the Dodgers see a lot of future revenue evaporating and have some concerns now.

That goes for the NBA, NFL, NASCAR, NHL and MLS (that’s Major League Soccer, in case you didn’t know)!
