[@ahmedsaleh9509]

[@seva4411]

Gays say they won the culture war with their gay marriage victory but it was a Pyrrhic victory since it had a devastating effect on them. Gay marriage legally abolished gender which enabled the trans activists supported by the Woke democrats and their media to get into the public schools and start promoting it to children. Effeminate boys and tomboy girls are now told they have the wrong body for their brain so they need to switch genders to put body and brain in alignment. Almost all of those children though would have grown up to be gay or lesbian or simply a tomboy straight woman who likes doing male activities. Parents also have a very hard time fighting this since it’s so strongly supported by the schools, the government and the culture. Evil times we live in. No denying that.

Because homosexuality is rebellion against God hence satanism. That's why. God created 2 genders and made them hetero simply so they could continue the human race aka Gods creation.

As a gay christian, I can confirm I have accepted Christ but am still gay. I believe God made me as I am in his image and he loves me as much as he loves anyone else. We are all Gods children! All are welcome in the kingdom of God not just straight people.

It’d be interesting to see Vice staff do an objective story of their own company supposedly filing for bankruptcy and their contracted journalists interview the staff about possibly losing their job soon. Also, didn’t realize that Walt Disney had a substantial % in ownership of Vice. Smh, Disney is really not doing well right now.
