The parade should be canceled. If not, then boycott it.
Just an extension of the drunken debauchery that it has become anyway - probably long overdue for being used as an example of what not to do as a Catholic. It seems though that for too long if you are a drunken Irish Catholic a wink and a nod from the Parish Priest on on yer way with ya and all is well for this type of behavior. It sets a poor example and must give question to those outside of the Church about why one lot of sin is ok and another prohibited.
St. Patrick’s Day parades in general have become more about getting plastered and less about celebrating the good works of the saint. By adding the LGBT crowd, the parade in New York is now completely a work of Satan.
I never liked parades, even as a child. Always thought they were boring — watching a bunch of people marching around and politicians doing phony waves to a crowd of people they didn’t know and didn’t care about. These days parades are all about politics and unions. Democrats love parades. Sort of like the “circuses” in “bread and circuses.” A distraction for the masses from life’s miseries actually created by the Democrats.
St Patrick deserves more respect than this. It’s a shame that this Godly man’s memory is associated with what he and his God knew to be sin...behavior that brings personal, social, and spiritual death.
Cancel the parade...period. We didn’t always have a parade.
For the Son of man shall come ... and then will he render to every man according to his works.
How is the parade financed? There in lies what is policy.
Good video just out from Michael Voris on Cardinal Dolan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0P7HXozdBns
