Gay Pride Rises at the Lowest Place on Earth (Literally)
The official X account of Israel, which is run by the Israeli Foreign Ministry, is promoting an upcoming four-day LGBTQ+ pride festival in June at the Dead Sea. They are doing this on the traditional location of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19:24-29).
Aaron Cohen, the main producer and initiator of the event, told the outlet that the scale of the festival is unprecedented,
"This is not just another festival, it's the biggest thing we've done here," he said.
He misspelled ‘dumbest.’
The event boasts four days of nonstop celebration, community, and queer connection in the same neighborhood traditionally known as Sodom and Gomorrah. The plan: turn a chunk of Judean Desert into a 24/7 pop-up city with hotels, beaches, and a main stage pumping Israeli talent round the clock.
Family zones for the kids, workshops, the whole package. Producer Aaron Cohen basically said they’re going full mad-scientist: “We bought entire hotels and built a city in the desert. It’s not a festival, it’s an experience.”
Yeah, nothing says family values like exposing innocent children to something that God calls an abomination (Leviticus 18:22; 20:13).
To the Jewish Derangement Syndrome crowd (you know who you are), this event is a private initiative led by producer Aaron Cohen and his team — not a government-funded or state-run event like some official national project. Just as San Francisco's awful pride stuff doesn't represent all of America, this doesn't speak for every Israeli, especially the more religious ones—including over 820 Seventh-day Adventists in Israel. So, please don’t turn this thread into another JDS rant.
That said, the official Israeli government account did promote it, and shame on them.
The optics, as the more biblically faithful among us have noted, are… impressive. Leviticus 18 and 20 are still clear, using that sturdy old Hebrew word to'evah — abomination — with the clarion bluntness of an Old Testament prophet who hadn’t yet received sensitivity training. And Romans 1 adds its own New Testament clarity for those keeping score at home (Romans 1:26-27).
I wonder if Israel’s trying to spur tourism while dodging rockets. Because nothing says “come visit!” like throwing the gayest party in history on the ashes of divine fire-and-brimstone real estate.
Abominable.
I hope they repent (2 Peter 3:9).

“For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting” (Romans 1:25-28).
Myself, Tony of the Big Saloon, Mary Winterbourne and Frances 'Fanny' Dango are meeting at Harris & Hoole tomorrow to consider what action to take about the vile and appalling traducing of my father and my Great-uncle.

Detterling this has all the the telltale signs of a man whistling past the graveyard. You will not sleep easy tonight worrying about what may lie ahead for you.

We will have our meeting at 11.00am in Harris & Hoole this morning. Will your ears be burning? Is the Pope a Catholic?

And let me repeat: Good old Saint Paul. He is always forthright about the sinfulness of the arsenoikotai and gives their apologists short shrift.

GENE GROPER VINCENT CLAIMS TO BE A "SEARINGLY HONEST" ADVOCATE OF FREE SPEECH.
ReplyDeleteHE IS A LYING BASTARD.
HE HAS REMOVED TWELVE POSTS FROM THIS THREAD BECAUSE THEY SHOWED HIM UP AS A BULLY, A COWARD AND A LIAR.
Yes, I am a searingly honest advocate of free speech. But I will not allow malicious falsehood.
ReplyDeleteYour evil posts about my father and my Great-uncle were beyond the pale.
Contrast this with anything I have written about you or any member of your family. What I wrote was always rip-roaring, rollicking good fun. Banter and badinage between friends.
GENE
Here's something to bring on nightmares for you Detterling.
ReplyDeleteIt was agreed at our Harris & Hoole meeting that Swashbuckling Mulligan should be drafted in to write another devastating satire.
Watch this space.

Can you really be so pompous, so self-deluding,so outrageously conceited that you think that more ninth-rate crap from you is going to give a moment's unease?
DeleteThe "satires" you write are flabby, laboured, hackneyed, riddled with cliches, feeble and painfully unfully, the literary equivalent of a kidney stone.
Poor Gene: not only a lonely, furtive serial groper, but also a two-faced, lying coward pretending to "searing honesty in the matter of free speech". The truth is that he is a nasty piece of work, a poltroon happy to dish out malicious lies whilst claiming that they are rip-roaring, rollicking good fun, banter and badinage between friends. This is notwithstanding that you, Gene are a loathsome apology for a human being; I'd rather make friends with a tapeworm.
Mind you, I don't blame you for hiding behind the ludicrous pen-name of Swashfuckling Bullshittigan: your writings are so bad in this genre that they disgrace even the dreadful performance you put up as Gene Vincent in "Granny Barkes crapped her drawers in The Good Yarn", and Christ knows that was epically dreadful.
What was it, 119 copies in two years?
Oh! dear. This sounds really like a man whistling past the graveyard.
ReplyDeleteTruth is Detters you are waking up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat crying out, " No! No! Not Swashbuckling Mulligan. He will decimate me. Make me a laughing stock. Heaven preserve me."
GENE
Bollocks, Groper, more wind and piss as usual, with your narcissist psychosis going full blast. It will be the the usual laboured tripe written by a pompous illiterate with delusions of adequacy.
ReplyDeleteOr was it 115 copies in two years?
