This is horrifiying! Drag Queen "Penny Cost" at a Methodist Church speaking with children!

Worshipping God "in spirit and truth"?
Lord have mercy!

I should say, it was not an Orthodox parish.

Lord have mercy, indeed.

somebody shared on Facebook a parish that did a Halloween service where the organ player was Beetlejuice and the usher was being devoured by an alien.

great stuff in church to expose the kids to.

I think I'd take that over the drag queen.


Fun fact, I found out that there's an OCA parish in Salem, MA! Let's Make Halloween Orthodox Again!

So children should be exposed to cross dressers & be told their God given gender is ambiguous?

what a needless post that added nothing to the discussion.

It's alarming what's considered harmless these days.

Will they come into contact with such people over the course of their lives? Of course they will! It does no harm to meet with such people. Oh and most cross-dressers are heterosexuals.

that’s a really weak point. just because they will run into a subculture, that doesn’t mean it will do them no harm when they are still young to experience that subculture as something good. cross dressing is sinful, how it being common is irrelevant.

They're being indoctrinated into the whole gender mess with it's men can be pregnant; no more mom and dad, it's birthing person now; male and female can't be defined, you can be several different genders etc. And the whole mess is to be glossed over and met with as much denial as possible (which you're demonstrating a prime example of), or else there's supposedly something seriously wrong with you and you're a fascist and a bigot etc.

Having been involved with homosexual men when I was in my early twenties and having had much promiscuous sex, both heterosexual and homosexual, allow me to say that you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. We are not here to gratify our passions. We are here to become like Christ (theosis) and to grow in holiness and love. All sexual gratification outside of the bounds of the marriage of one woman and one man for one lifetime is selfish and self-serving. I know this. I have seen the behavior of homosexual men, I have heard them talk, even the ones who were "married" (i.e. supposed faithful partners for life before "gay marriage" became a thing) and it is all about serving their genitalia.

Behavior such as this leaves deep scars on the soul and spirit. Did you even bother to read the blog piece I posted? Here, I'll give it to you again. Perhaps you will take the time to read it and educate yourself into the great struggles that these scars have left in my soul.

May God forgive you for calling sin "innocent" The suffering that sin gives us, both in this life and especially in the next, when we come face to face with He who is Truth, is hardly innocent.

I made no reference to homosexuality in my post but outright sinful & unnecessary pollution of children’s minds as to their God given identity.

While I believe homosexuality is adultery, I believe a person born with the disposition is not guilty of it and conquers it in celibate struggle just as a single heterosexual must do so. One will struggle with their passions and cannot take it lightly, but as long as a person does not inflict ( & really not want to) their passions on another person, forgiveness of sin is much more hopeful.

We already have enough problems in a fallen, sinful world and degenerate behavior perpetuates and creates more misery.
