First of all, the moms always know. A lot of times they lead and condone this conduct. Let’s not act like Magic is solely coming from the perspective as a parent. Personally, I think being a parent is the last perspective and way that he approached this. Nobody knows what his real feelings are. What we do know is that if he had any negative public feelings and comments, his businesses would have been affected… Maybe not suffering or collapsing. But it would have been negatively affected. And this played a major part in how he approached this. Let’s be real… His son went above and beyond with his conduct initially because of his fathers celebrity and his access to Magic’s money for his public shenanigans.

[@Shickman72]

While stated so authoritatively, your summary is still an opinion as is mine that follows. Magic can be upset with EJ's shenanigans and not voice them publicly. Sure money/business could be a factor, but love for his son could restrict any chastisement to a private setting.

Please I have a question, did God so loved the world(us human beings) and sent his Son the Lord Jesus Christ to us for what? To repent and believe in Him or to believe in Him and continue in our sinful ways of thinking, thinking it is our right??

[@KOJO_WINS]

Nah. No props for Magic and D Wade. We rebuke it!

[@GANGSTER-TRUMP2024]

Yes it is one thing to unconditionally love your child, but it's another thing to APPROVE of their ABOMINABLE sinful lifestyle. Hopefully Magic warn him FROM THE BIBLE, what God clearly state are the consequences of an unrepentant Sinner when they die WITHOUT JESUS CHRIST?

[@TheCristuff]

I'm not supporting anything that doesn't continue my legacy. I will still love you but I'm not supporting it when it's hurtful to my name for other people it's okay but I need life to continue from my line and not just made in a lab. Same as if you love someone and they cannot have any children. Sorry, I have to find someone else. For me it's about legacy if I have one son and he dies well I need to make another one.

[@johnnyhunter5994]

@ Krasen Zhelyazkov who says their unnatural lifestyle doesn’t hurt anyone? God is hurt by the way they live. If we think God is a loving caring God, that feels empathy for us at times aswell as joy at other times why can’t we see that as sinful human beings we cause him pain? Love your child that’s fine God wouldn’t have it any other way, but to accept or respect them living a unnatural lifestyle? No God doesn’t want that, when we show acceptance, support or respect for that which is unnatural we are condoning it and that you shouldn’t do, if you truly love God! That’s gos for ANY LIFESTYLE not just the LGBTQ but anything that goes against the laws and principles of Gods word!
