Pride is Opposed By God

Pride. The month of June for homosexuals is Pride month and many government and state agencies also educational entities have promoted Pride month.

  1. Exactly! Homosexuals are already allowed to have civil unions, but they are trying to bring about legalized pedophilia and to proselytize for homosexuality in grade schools while using the phrase "bullying" for anyone who disagrees. It reminds me of Nazi tactics.
