Russian Patriarch Rips LGBTQ+ ‘Pride’ Parades

British intelligence: Homosexual rights distinguish the West from Putin

MOSCOW (ChurchMilitant.com) - The head of the Russian Orthodox Church is excoriating the West for imposing a "loyalty test" of "LGBTQ+ pride marches" as a precondition for entry into its "happy" world of false freedom.

"Do you know what this test is? The test is very simple and at the same time terrible — this is a gay parade," Metropolitan Kirill preached Sunday in his sermon ushering in the Orthodox liturgical season of Great Lent.

"The demands on many to hold a gay parade are a test of loyalty to that very powerful world; and we know that if people or countries reject these demands, then they do not enter into that world — they become strangers to it," the patriarch of Moscow and All Russia said.

"If humanity recognizes that sin is not a violation of God's law" but "one of the options for human behavior, then human civilization will end there," the archbishop of Moscow warned.

Such a perversion, "promoted through the so-called pride marches," is "a test for the loyalty of this government" and a "kind of passport to the world of excess consumption, the world of visible 'freedom,'" Kirill thundered.

The patriarch preached:

Gay parades are designed to demonstrate that sin is one of the variations of human behavior. That is why, to enter the club of those countries, it is necessary to hold a gay pride parade — not to make a political statement "we are with you," not to sign any agreements — but to hold a gay parade.

Kirill is against the LGBT agenda and is also against abortion.

Francis is pro-gay and pro-abortion.

A photograph of Benedict XVI would be a better Pope than Francis.

Don't worry. Jorge will soon come against homosexuality when it's demanded by his lord Xi, peace be unto him.

It appears both sides are shenanaging their way into this war.

This whole new religious justification of invading Ukraine for lgbtq reasons is complete and utter BS.

You havent; simply because we’ve been without a true pope since 1958.
