But Patriarch Kirill said the war is about “which si of God humany will be on” the divi between supporters of gay pri events — or the Wtern ernments that allow them — and their opponents Rsian-backed eastern Ukrae.

RSIA'S HIGHT RELIG AUTHORY JT COMPARED GAY MARRIAGE TO NAZI GERMANY

That's why orr to jo the club of those untri, you have to have a gay pri para, ” he said his Fivens Sunday sermon. The Rsian church lear characterized gay pri paras as a “loyalty tt” to Wtern ernments, which Ukrae’s breakaway republics have “fundamentally rejected.

Cg Rsian-language media, the Tim reports that Kirill referred to “so-lled homosexual marriag” as a threat to fay valu. Acrdg to the Tim, the Patriarch has ma siar parisons between marriage equaly and thorarianism the past; Kirill said a 2016 terview wh Rsia Today that homosexual unns were a form of “Soviet totalarianism” that threaten humany.

While his print bombed children Ukrae, the patriarch of the Rsian Orthodox church ed his March 6 Sunday sermon to name the real source of the war started by Rsia agast s neighbor: Gay pri paras. The tt is very simple and at the same time terrible — is the Gay Pri para.

AS PUT BOMBS CHILDREN, RSIAN ORTHODOX PATRIARCH NAM THE ROOT OF UKRAE’S S: GAY PRI PARAS

The mands on many to hold a gay para are a tt of their loyalty to the new world orr; and we know that if people or untri reject the mands, then they do not enter to that world orr, they bee strangers to . Wh no reference to Rsia’s unprovoked aggrsn agast Ukrae and no sense of irony that his ments were livered wh a sermon ostensibly about fivens, the patriarch spoke of the “s” of Gay Pri. “Surely, there n be different opns about the Gay Pri paras and cricizg the events om a relig pot of view is also part of relig liberty.

But Gay Pri paras were not the only peculiar thg on the patriarch’s md last Sunday. And that, too, is fundamentally about Gay Pri paras, the patriarch said.

And Gay Pri paras are signed to monstrate that s is one of the legimate variatns of human behavr. “That is why orr to enter the club of those ‘ee’ untri, is necsary to hold a Gay Pri para. Not to make a polil statement ‘we are wh you, ’ not to sign any agreements, but to hold a Gay Pri para.

BLAMG THE UKRAE INVASN ON … THE GAYS?

But a Sunday sermon, Patriarch Kirill, the head of the Rsian Orthodox Church, offered a startlg new explanatn that is sure to ronate wh the Sohrab Ahmari wg of the morn Amerin right: It was to save Eastern Ukrae om the gays. It’s very simple but also horrific: ’s a gay para. The mand to hold a gay para is fact a tt for loyalty to that powerful world, and we know that if people or untri rist this mand, they are exclud om that world and treated as alien.

Surely even relig believers who own on gay pri paras should agree that kidnappg and torturg people is worse. He did, however, return more than once to the evil of gay paras and to his claim that holdg such paras was a requirement for membership the “club” of powerful untri. The patriarch’s sistence that the war Ukrae is all about gay paras remd me of a brilliant Rsian-language poem someone shared wh me on Twter the other day, wrten by Rsian-Ukraian poet Artem Polezhaka late 2013 and tled “Reportage.

” The poem hilarly spoofs state-owned Rsian televisn’s hysteril reportg on the Euromaidan protts Kyiv: the reporter breathlsly reunts the creasgly grotque horrors he supposedly wns—a mélange that featur neo-Nazis, jihadists, looters, nnibals, and Jews who “drk Christian babi’ blood by the bucket”—but keeps g back to gay i. It ma me thk, too, of fairly mon claims by pro-Kreml nservativ the Uned Stat that the real reason the libs hate Put and Put’s Rsia is the homophobia. Most recently, this argument was trotted out by polil mentator Richard Hanania a Substack post which argued that liberal el Ameri had viewed the Put regime wh relative difference until 2013, when Rsia “passed a law banng gay propaganda towards mors” ( realy, rtrictg any gay-themed ntent any place where mors uld see , cludg public events promotg gay rights), and Put began his transformatn to a Hollywood villa.

WHY A GAY RSIAN TEACHER LEFT HIS LIFE BEHD

Were some Wtern progrsiv more censed by Rsia’s “gay propaganda” law than by the btal supprsn of peaceful protts, the cshg of the pennt media, the electn-riggg, and the rt of the Put regime’s systematic asslt on civil liberti? The untry still bans same-sex marriage and adoptn by same-sex upl, and only about one five people (siar to the numbers Rsia) believ that homosexualy should be accepted by society. However, for all s problems, Ukrae is sufficiently hospable to ee exprsn that thoands of people have been able to march unr rabow flags year to year— ntrast to Rsia, where attempts to hold such events have end vlence om both police and anti-gay vigilant.

RSIAN ORTHODOX LEAR SAYS UKRAE VASN IS PART OF STGGLE AGAST ‘GAY PARAS’

One n bate whether the Amerin liberals and progrsiv who have cisively won the culture war on gay rights are too tolerant toward people who still subscribe to tradnal sexual moraly, such as Christian bakers and florists who refe to provi servic for same-sex weddgs. But the willgns of que a few tradnalists to see btal anti-gay reprsn as the silver lg of an thorarian regime rather dramatilly illtrat the ugls at the heart of the “trad” mdset.

And Patriarch Kirill’s obscene wartime sermon shows one place where this path leads: the place where the dread “gay para” is a greater evil than a war of aggrsn.
