Russian Church Calls For Defense of Traditional Values, Anti-LGBT in Global Institutions
Global Orthodox ^ | 8/19/22

Posted on 08/22/2022 6:11:11 PM PDT by marshmallow

The Russian Orthodox Church proposes adopting special international acts to sustain traditional values in the modern world, including the protection of the family as the union of a man and a woman. This position on behalf of the Russian Orthodox Church has been expressed by the Chairman of the Patriarchal Commission for Family, Maternity and Childhood Protection Rev. Fr. Fedor Lukianov, speaking at the forum "Army-2022."

"We have universal traditional values that unite us and today especially need protection. New challenges facing humanity dictate the need to initiate international acts that respond to threats and risks. International organizations which our nation is a part of could become venues for the discussion. This will imbue them with a global sense of association, make them full-fledged institutions, the guarantors of future peace and prosperity of mankind," said Fr. Fedor.

Today there is an urgent need to improve bioethical legislation restricting human experimentation at all stages of development, beginning with conception. In the sphere of social relations, according to the head of the Patriarchal Commission, we need acts to protect the family as the union of a man and a woman.

The Russian Orthodox Church believes that new platforms and institutions are needed to create and implement such legal acts in national legislation. "Convincing the existing ones to to change their course, I'm afraid, is pointless," the Church representative said. According to him, the Moscow Patriarchate and the Patriarchal Commission on the Family have experience in organizing events to protect traditional values and are always open to cooperation.

Lol. Look at the reality of what’s going on in Russia, not some PR.

Today, it’s very rare to see leadership from the church. Well done!

True enough. It’s never smart to get between a Russian man and his vodka and a kilo of fat back or a Russian woman and her abortion or a jar of mayonnaise.

Here's the Russian Church, blessing a nuclear missile. Not the soldiers operating it, the actual WMD. Verily, these are the moral leaders we should all follow...

Well first of all, this has to be fake news, because these can’t be clergy. They do not have pink hair and do not appear to be lesbians.

Only Reform Church clergy sport the rainbow flags and piercings. This is straight-up Old Slavonic Liturgy...

Take a look around the US, gay marriage, boys in girls locker rooms, men in woman’s restrooms, Trans in every ,gov agency, LGBXYZ everywhere, illegals invading, sorry, Russia holds the higher moral ground. Russia has codified into law against all these abominations, while the US has legalized all that filth.

I was kidding. But seriously, are we going to compare Russian depravity to our own and somehow feel good? Is our depravity somehow better and more patriotic than theirs?

I think that its OK to say, “You know, those Ruskies are getting it right on this one, even if it’s just a Church saying what they think is right” Don’t you?

I can excuse blessing a few nuclear weapons compared to the wholesale rejection of traditional and cultural values that seems to be nearly all religious institutions in the United States. Russian nuclear weapons could not damage America more than the LGBT+ lobby has already done.

You boys are no doubt aware that Russia has by far the world's highest per-capita rate of abortion (beating the next-highest country by double digits), and that its male conscripts are forced into gay male prostitution by their commanding officers. Yeah, it's a real beacon on the hill...

The reality is that Russia is a nuclear armed lifeboat in a globohomo ocean. The elites don’t like being told where they can get off, so Putin is the devil and Russia must be corralled.

“Yeah, it’s a real beacon on the hill...”

Are they right when they espouse Traditional Values and oppose LGBT in Global Institutions?

Poland is the real deal as far as resisting globohomo and Western Decadence. But the EU is putting a lot of pressure on them.

If those weapons help to ensure a place where the current insanity is unwelcome, then, absolutely: God bless them.

“You’re a real patriot, cheering for the nuclear ICBMs that are aimed at my kids’ heads.”

The LGBT+ agenda is literally aimed at your kids heads, particularly the brain within.

If I were you, I’d worry less about Russian ICBMs (blessed or not) and more about what your kids are being force fed in our own culture.

Plus, I think you might be a little unhinged, so you might dial it back just a little bit.
