CA Passes Resolution Blaming Religious People for High Suicide Rates in the LGBT
Christian Headlines ^

Posted on 07/31/2019 8:01:53 AM PDT by MNDude

Lawmakers in California have passed a resolution that singles out the state’s religious communities and forces them to fully support LGBT individuals.

In an astonishing bid to have people of faith conform to the pervading progressive culture, the legislators even blamed religious individuals for many of the issues faced by those in the LGBT community today – including suicide, the Federalist reports.

The resolution, which recently passed through the state assembly, reads: “the Legislature calls upon all Californians to embrace the individual and social benefits of family and community acceptance” of LGBT people. The document unapologetically pins blame on people of faith for being contributors to the sky-rocketing suicide rates among the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community.

“The stigma associated with being LGBT often created by groups in society, including therapists and religious groups, has caused disproportionately high rates of suicide, attempted suicide, depression, rejection, and isolation amongst LGBT and questioning individuals…” the bill reads.

That’s a bigoted proclamation on its face.

And it won’t be long before the “enlightened” Californians start making racist proclamations.

And oh yeah - chocolate rations are up.

California cannot outlaw the first Amendment of the Constitution.

Homosexuals die at rates much higher than the general population for suicide, drug and alcohol addiction, cancer, and STDs. In Canada, for example, I have seen statistics that the average homosexual male has a life span 21 years shorter than the general population.

Typical tactic: You can't get people to accept something voluntarily, so you pass a law forcing them to accept it. From gay wedding cakes to 32oz sodas, Big Brother is eating away your freedoms, and CA seems to be the lemming capital of the US.

I wouldn’t bet the farm on that, friend. Just saying.

Seriously? A “resolution”? What does that achieve exactly and what are the penalties for telling California lawmakers to FO and mind their own business?

Why do homosexuals care about what other people think about them?

If you live your life based on what other people think of you then that’s a recipe for misery.

Exhibit A of the many reasons why I consider these people my enemies rather than political adversaries. They would go full Khmer Rouge on us given the opportunity.

Bingo.

California is neither free nor secure.

It won’t hold. Russia did the same thing (said unironically) and once it crumbled - all the natural values came right back.

Could it be the thing in their brains that causes them to be attracted to the same sex also causes them all the problems they have. I mean the human race has survived for thousands of years with the man woman thing. The same sex attraction thing seems to be a outlier that persists mainly because it does not retard reproduction.

The lifestyle really sucks

Homos know they suck and that’s depressing so they kill themselves dead.

Nature’s way to sustain the human race from extincting itself!

And CA is against this. Morons

People who reject the natural order of things re: male/female and reject their own biology are going to be unhappy disordered people.

That alone accounts for their high suicide rate.
