Patriarch Porfirije [of Serbia]: The Cancelation of EuroPride Is Necessary and Justified
Pravoslavie ^ | 9/7/22

Posted on 09/08/2022 6:42:47 PM PDT by marshmallow

Yesterday, September 6, His Holiness Patriarch Porfirije of the Serbian Orthodox Church made a special statement on the urgent issue of EuroPride.

EuroPride is a pan-European LGBT event hosted by a different city ever year, and this year it is planned to be held in Belgrade on September 12-18.

The event has proven to be a scandal for traditional Serbian society, and the Orthodox faithful have taken to the streets several times now to prayerfully protest the imposition of LGBT values.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić announced late last month that EuroPride won’t be held as scheduled on September 12-18 due to the “significant crisis in Kosovo,” although the organizers of the event have indicated that they intend to hold it anyways.

Pat. Porfirije’s new statement reads in full:

Brothers and sisters, dear friends,

Not only in Serbia, but also everywhere where the Serbian people live, many debates, disagreements, disputes, and conflicts have been caused by the announcement that an event known as EuroPride would be held in the capital city of Belgrade. This topic is artificially imposed upon us and completely contradicts the system of values of our people, as well as our brothers and sisters of other religions and peoples with whom we live. Representatives of traditional churches and religious communities directly have testified to me about this. Therefore, I consider the cancellation of this event to be correct.

If Obama was still potus, he’d declare this one of those 57 states and issue an emergency order forcing the parade.

The only thing these alphabet groups really understand is a fist in the face.

The LGBTQ crowd may just be able to pull off the impossible and give Orthodox Serbs, Catholic Croats and Kosavar Muslims something all three can agree upon.

Hmmm, I’m not thinking that ends well for the alphabet folks . . .

Civil war is coming in the traditional European eastern cultures.

We saw the story the other day about a school district deciding to merely NOT recognized "gay history month" in October and it was suddenly a crisis of apocalyptic levels.
